The last few days we've had nice dry weather. Woke up during the night 2 times with baby Nova and heard the rain coming down. Not really much rain during the race but it was miserable waiting in the cold and wet to get registered. Race went well. Was targeting 7:00 minute pace and hit 6:56 according to my garmin. I will update the results when they come out. There were about a gazillion people starting out and it was tough to get around a lot of them. I parked it right behind Mark Howard and kept close but couldn't catch him at the end.
I finally met Snoqualmie and that was great. Wish we had gotten more time to just talk about the race. Sounds like it went great for her. *Update* Was 6th place in 45-50 year olds. If I had been in either 30-34 or 40-44 I would have been 2nd. What's up with all the old guys running so dang fast? According to the Official timer I was right at 7:00 pace, so still happy even though my garmin says I was faster.
