Not to bad a race today. Wasnt planning on anything super fast I just wanted to beat my previous times on this course. I wasnt going to have to try to hard as I think my fastest on this course was 40 something a few years back. Didnt see any super fast runners at first and thought I might get a win in a slow field but then I saw Nick and a couple other guys and knew that wasnt going to happen. Fell into 6th place by 1/2 a mile and stayed there until mile 3. Caught up with Nicks little bro (Camron i think) and ran behind him for the rest of the race. I knew we where slowing in miles 4-5 and if I could get around him i might be able to move up on number 3 but I just couldnt get any speed going. I was starting to get frustrated with it but finally got my mind/body to relax and enjoy where I was at. Tried to speed up the last mile and pull away but he stuck right with me and was able to sprint off the last .2. Had a good time and Im glad I ran.
