"This is about as good as I can do, I think." I don't believe so. You ran a very tough course, and the best time to think about a new PR is after you have just run one. You did a fine job on this race. You thought it through in advance, executed a tough hilly course and got a PR. What's wrong with thinking about the next one? I bet you can do it. You are a fine runner. Nice going, and great report. Spareribs
