Good race today. I was able to shave another 25 seconds off my 10k time and 3 minutes off last years time. This course is a bit flatter than the Summer Games course so I can tell Im in better shape so far. I felt good but could tell right from the get go that I wasnt going to be able to keep close enough to the leaders to win. I was able to stay within a few yards of Nate until the last 3/4 mile but I knew I wouldnt be able to catch him. Once Ryan passed me I just wanted to keep from slidding back any further which I was able to do. No shin issues today so I think its time to start picking the training back up. |
