Comments: I have not done any speedwork so I wasn't sure what to expect. Went out what felt comfortable and ended up at 6:40 first mile. I tried to keep that pace for 2nd mile and did. I was running 7th, Mark and Andy were long gone but I was close to next 4. Mile 3 started to hurt but I picked off 2 guys and was gaining on the next who had been running together the whole race. I ended up 4 seconds behind them in 5th overall. Each mile got a little faster. Realistically I was hoping to go under 7:00 pace, 6:36 is great for first race. Only 30 seconds from sub-20. What would you do differently?: Maybe stay with Michael and Marie when they passed me and get them at the end. Marie is 50F and Michael 57M so we had 3 50 year olds in top 5.  Post race
Warm down: Ran around SF then caught up to Mark and Chris (w/Porter) and Kyle and ran 2 miles of race route. Last updated: 2010-03-22 12:00 AM
