Race

Well, it wasn't super hot, about 70, but it was super humid.  Got out of work last night at 11:30, then got called back at midnight to do a DRE, so ended up getting  to sleep just after 2am.  Woke up about 5:30 to get to race.

2 mile warmup with Erik M.  Did not feel good.

10 mile race went better than I thought it would under circumstances. 

After about the half mile mark, I thought I was going to start running 6:00+ pace.  Felt awful from the start and I only ran with Erik for about 400 meters.  Somehow I kept it together.

57:13 which is better than the 58 I wanted to run if it was hot, but way off the 55 I'm aiming at in february.  Erik won handly in 53:51.  2nd place for me.  This is why I don't race in the summer. 

2+ mile cooldown with Erik and Perry.
