Comments:
I felt pretty good today. We set up the tent finally, got there early, and just got ready. The course was pretty muddy in some areas, about half as bad as Adirondack was, which is still much much better. When we were warming up it was sunny and felt almost 60. Then 30 minutes before we ran it dropped at least 10 degrees in 10 minutes. Then about 10 minutes before we ran it started to pour. It actually pumped me up, so much anticipation as the guy raised and held the gun. When it started everyone flew. It was insane, I was last on our team for at least a quarter mile. Once again it was pretty packed but not quite as bad as earlier in the year. Once again, I think I ran really well on this course considering a few things. One, it was still pretty packed, two it was really muddy in some areas, three there was still some sharp turns although they changed it a bit. Could have definitely pr'd if it weren't for those things, but I'll take it. Are team placed 8th out of 17 in class B and 28th out of 64 in section 3 so pretty good. I got a speed rating of 126, pretty sure I've gotten that or 127 every invite for 4 weeks or so now. I came in 4th on the team, 56th out of 154 in Class B and 205th out of 578 overall. Unfortunately, Rachel Fairbanks did not run at this meet for some reason, so my goal will have to carry over to next year. Not a bad way to end the season, especially compared to last year.
