 Run
Comments: I run here a bit so I know how steep it gets at places. I knew we had about 2 miles up hill and then we would be on a single track for a while with not much room for passing so I wanted to find a like paced group. I took it ease but settled in behind a nice line of people pushing it just a bit. At mile 5 the race really began. I settle in with a group and we pushed each other quite well. Passed a lot of people in the last mile as the group I was in were doing sub 6 min mile down the hill. This was my first Xterra and I thought maybe I could break 1:30 on this course. A lot of obstacles on the run. Over logs, under branches, hair pin turns with huge drop along side. This was so cool! Over 2000 feet of climbing. What would you do differently?: Train more  Post race
Warm down: Coffee then hitched a ride to my car at the school What limited your ability to perform faster: Training Event comments: A great time. Will be doing more of these for sure! Last updated: 2011-11-11 12:00 AM

Registered, got the shirt, hung out for a bit
Nothing, somehow I recognized Chris M at the start. It was nice to meet a fellow BT'er in person.
