So how to begin?? After Boston on I think about Tuesday while doing my run at work I felt really good and with the weather looking good i thought what the heck...Yolo. and when I checked the single age record book to see what I had to run to get it...that was the icing on the cake...Previous record was 2:41:50..

Well with pretty much no recovery at all I made my attempt today and was sucessful. 

The morning started out about 3:30 had me some expresso and grabbed a blueberry muffing and banana for the ride down. Parked the red sweat rocket right next to the pancake church where we usually meet. Everyone used the rocket for a quick drop. 

We got down on the start line with about 15 min to spar. OK Runner had a loaded gun today... and poor ol Coyote ville was at the losing end. 

I took out with Scotty D and went for about a mile with him and picked his brain as to what he wanted...I knew that I wasn't ready for that. So i fell in behind and tried to figure out what pace felt comfortable. I ran mostly in the 5:50-6:10 range give or take. 

It was really nice to have a bunch of familiar faces out on the course cheering your name. 

Think I will be taking a race break for a while and start focusing on base miles though the heat and maybe some quicker speed workouts.

Scotty D was full winner and OK Runner Girls took home the relay W.

Scott Smith (CR) the 1/2 along with Ashley Miller on the women side winners.

Eric and J-Hat both had PR's Roger not far off from PR.. Jimbo was back in action
