Event comments:

Teams were out en mass at this race. InStep had what appeared to be the entire team there, properformance had a large group as did Rodiez's too. Gear Grinders was also well represented and there appeared to be lots of college kids as well. definately the fastest overall race i have been in this year. tuff hill at the two mile mark that lasted half of a mile.........ugh.

Thing is, you're preparing for an IM this year, not for a top 5K performance.

A sub-6 is nothing to sneeze at, either.

And you want me to run in the Alumni meet with you, 18 minute man?  Only if you promise to have a beer waiting for me as I schlep across the line 4 mins later.

Seriously, that's a good race for the conditions.  No lake breeze to be found which always sux when you expect it.
