you pushed me to go the extra mile...

This morning was one of my best short races to date.  The weather was gorgeous, and I knew from my first mile split (which had included Cat Hill) that it was going to be a good race. There's such an advantage to racing a course that you know inside and out, where you can anticipate the grade of each uphill, know exactly how long you have to recover on the rolling downhills.  I finished in 38:17, one of my best race times yet.  Now if only I could run a 9:34 pace during the marathon ;)
