Hit my head getting into the Element — and my knee. The knee hurt worse, and seemed to do something to my calf. Went into the race fearing I would pull something.

My goal was to do better than the past two years, which I certainly did. Not as fast as three years ago, but still entirely respectable. I came in first man in my division ... though I will check to see if there were any other men in my division. One fifty year old woman was faster. It's not a big race.
The girl wanted to beat thirty minutes, which she accomplished handily at 25:44.86. Her pace was 8:18.
