A really good race. So close to my goal of under 50 which was a bit ambitious. I was very happy with the pace I kept. People were running ahead and dropping back all around me, but I kept steady and then picked up the pace for the last 5 minutes. Misjudged the distance to the end and started my sprint early (about 1/4 mile out) then crawled across the finish. Absent that miscalculation, a really good race. I think I have a sub 50min 10k in me when I am not focused on the marathon. Awesome effort on your run. Sometimes the slow tough ones are a greater accomplishment than the longer and faster ones. It is all about discipline and keeping on. I will post a new thread in the next day as we are approaching crunch time.
