Run for the Diamonds
Tried to start the race as close to the line as I could, passed a lot of people in the first mile(5:41), struggled a bit going up the hill, kept looking up in the race to a girl who reminded me of Esther, swithced back and forth with runners on the downhill, ran the downhills better than before but felt like I kept leaning back or couldn't turnover quick enough, really didn't have any kick toward the end, since I wasn't in a position to receive an award and already running a monster PR, didn't have much motivation, 40th place overall, finished behind the top two women, 16th place in my age group 20-24, 4 min plus PR, record number participation on this centennial anniversary
