And it's over. I didn't quite reach my goal of getting into the 15:30's this year but there's still many positive things to take from this race.
First and foremost, it was a PB and that's always good. Secondly, I basically lead from start to finish (other than when wunderkind MW took the lead at about 1200m in) and that shows strength. I was also able to find another gear in the last k and break the three-man pack that myself, DF and MW had going. That shows confidence.
I won in 15:45. Or was it 15:48? That start was a little messy.
Still, I can't help but feel a slight aftertaste of disappointment because I think it would have been faster had I been chasing someone.
One last bonus: I won a watch! I held it high in celebration (such a dork).
