Ran most of the route as a warm up with Dave, Mr. Finch and Steve. I knew that the hill coming out of the river was going to kill me but the rest of the route seemed fun.
Dave, Steve, Mr. Finch and a kid from Hurricane took off in the lead group and I pretty much never saw them once we left the road. I was back behind a couple of kids for 1/4 mile then passed them and was alone for the rest of the run. Thought maybe the down hill might cause me some issues at race speed but never had any problems thankfully. Once at the bottom of the hill my legs were spent and I knew the climb back up was going to be ugly. It was and I was suprised to see the Hurricane kid only a short distance in front of me. If I would have had any juice left I could have caught him but that wasnt going to happen so I just kept him from getting to far ahead.
Finished with a couple mile cool down and then the awards.
