Alright, I signed up for US Masters X-C race December 9th in Lexington, KY.
Dirigo guys may send a team. Hopefully. After yesterdays run there is no doubt I should have a chance to be in top 5. Goal is still top 15, but if I can have a good race, I should be right up near the front. If I can stay with pack I should be able to get away from just about anyone in final half mile. I don't have he best kick, but it should be good enough if I can stick close.
Now I just need to figure out flights, hotels and car rentals.
Still plan on 4 mile race this weekend as long as I can get a ride to the race in Ellsworth. I think one of the guys I work with will drive me. The course is pretty tough, but I'd like to be under 21:20, and really I'd like to be under 21:00.
3 mile race next weekend is more important and should be a tough race up front. Flat course, but wind can be an issue on this course. Going to try and run first mile of this in 4:50 and then hopefully be in low 15's for whole thing if it's not windy. Won't be able to stick around for awards. Race is at 1pm, and I have to be at work at 3. So I will run, jump in my car and drive the hour back to BH.
