7:30AM start (left Atlanta just after 5AM). Shan went with me. Quick stop at Shoney's in Rossville @7:00 to avoid potty
lines. Easy check-in.
About 50 degrees, calm. First miles was just right (6:55). Was in 10th place through 2. Started running at 3. 33:22
first 5 miles (now in 6th place).
1:05:59 (32:37 second 5) through 10, which was good, but wasn't looking at my watch (just logging splits).
Was is 5th place at the half (1:26:30).
Usually start my push at 14, but pretty gusty headwinds had moved in. Got out of the wind around 16 and started
working. Caught 4th place at 18 (after running a 6:15). Caught 3rd at 19 (after running a 6:17). Pressed hard for two
more miles to seal third and work towards 2nd.
1st and second really had a gap on me at 20 (about a mile) and I actually had not really accomplished the full shake
off of 4th place. Had run a 30 second negative between 10 and 20 (good). Press hard through 21 (6:20); had a fairly
slow 22 (6:50), compared to the previous 4 (don't really know why) and a ran a 41:03 last 10K (I don't usually break 41
for the last 10K). Finished with a 2:52:35 and a :25 negative split.
Fun run; didn't look at my watch after mile 1 til 23. Knew I was sub 2:55 pretty early on, so I was more interested in
place. 1st place broke 2:45; second was in the 2:47s.
