1st Overall, 38:59. Days from Felix: -33days
Well this one made my running career a lot more fun. For as long as I can remember I've had the dream of winning a stand alone running race outright. I've had two second places before, years ago, but never thought I would have the opportunity. It always comes down to who shows up on any given day and I guess I just got lucky today.
Coming on the back of my amazing 50mile race experience in the San Juan's this was all the sweeter. While that was a memory I will cherish forever, it wasn't a performance I am proud of as I struggled all day. Moving down to a shorter distance and getting a good result was very enjoyable.
