- 7:00AM start on the Appalachian State track
- Low 60s at the start, calm
- Was in 20th place or so after a couple of miles...and then climbing started
- Picked up a few spots and got hooked in with 24 year old John who ran GFM 06 in a 3:03.
- We clicked along and were in about 10 place at the half
- Worked hard through 17, then really worked from 20 to 26 (and had alot of fun with it)
- Ran 1 minute negative split, unfortunately it was 1:36 / 135
- Very happy with the performance, but really surprised that the time wasn't close to 3:00
