Notes
Well, The race was okay in some respects. First of all, I felt pretty good until my left quad started cramping. I managed to keep going close to a racing pace, until my left quad started to cramp in the final 400 meters. I raced well with several in my age group. I finished 30th overall, and was 2nd in the 50-54 age group. I was ahead of the person who finished 1st in the group until the final mile. He was only 8 seconds in front by the end. I was heavy for the race, and haven't done much for speed. Actually, I'm quite please with the time considering most of my running for the past 2 months have been at about 10 minute pace. I still want quite a bit more.
