you don't want to know how beautiful the weather is here, so I won't tell you. I running doubles wearing socks, shoes, shorts and sunglasses which should give you a hint.
Anyway more on the race, I was a one gear queer the other day and couldn't run 6:40s so settled in to 6:50s and never really felt bad just couldn't go any faster. I was catching guys and was shocked to see 2:51 won it. Last years champ (Mike A)had a 1.5 mile lead at mile 19 (out and back section) and fell apart (he ran 2:57)I guess the heat affected people? As for my nature break it was a first and I hope last, still thinking of the blue haired old ladies passing me in their lexus with my shorts at half mast(no bushes no problem)...funny stuff!I could really care less about being modest or a pig! oink oink
