Ran with my sister because my legs were still completely trashed from the UVM course Saturday and this 10k course is hard. And to be completely honest the last thing I really needed was one more failed race to further deplete the small semblance of confidence I'm currently retaining. Anyway, after the first 4 miles I did manage a 2 mile tempo 6:16, 5:58. I did not feel awesome but was glad I got something out of the race. Amber was also feeling pretty off yesterday and I do not think this race reflects her current fitness. She has had a respiratory illness for 2 weeks and just couldn't breathe well.
We had a good time and this race is always a fun tradition. Jen ran 37 minutes which to those that know this course is just completely outstanding. I may or may not be booking a ticket to MN to watch that girl go after her dream!
