The Race

It went pretty well: 23:34 versus my estimated time (given current fitness and health) of 24:00. I was in pretty good shape until the last mile, which almost exclusively and steadily uphill. I should be able to run a minute faster on Dec. 1.

George ran great: 27:08. It was cool and crisp but bright sunshine and not much wind. I took my hat off in the first mile and was glad I was in shorts but I was also grateful for my long sleeves and gloves.

With the warm-up I snuck in 7.5K on the day, which gives me a 51K week. My cold seems to be behind me. I'm looking forward to a good training week coming up.
