Run was tough. Hills definitely kicked my butt - Have not been doing hills this winter. First time in my life running 16 miles, so I can't complain.
What would you do differently?:

Get there earlier.

Nice Race- you were moving! Couldn't have asked for better conditions ,eh - clear roads & no wind- not too freezing for January.
VERY nice for "first time 16 miles!"...sounds like you are on your way to 26- Are you running Boston???

Hey thanks, Isis!  No Boston for me this year.  Plan is to qualify this fall at Baystate - fast and flat - and do Boston '07!  Looks like you might have similar plans? Looks like we're doing a lot fo the same races.  "A" races for me - Moosman OLY and Timberman 1/2.  Should be a great summer!  See you out there!

Wowsa! Fast time on a very tough course. I went to high school in Derry so I know there are some pretty good hills to deal with. Nice job!
