  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Good race, but the new run course was strange figure 8-like course. Adjusting for the new run course distance, I was actually slower than last year, but I had a good time and it's always great to do with my sons.

  • Comments: ANother fine job by the Ellington team (Bill D). Lots of enthusiatic volunteers. New run course was a major improvement. I admit, I was disappointed - 5th place (great - very cool!), but 3rd in AG, so no podium action - oh well. Maybe when I turn 50! I really want one of those commemorative glasses!

  • Comments: I took first in my AG last year here and 3rd the year before. Took 2nc in AG in tolland this spring. This race was my most disappointing to date. Very humbling. I will reevaluate my plan. I am writing this 4 months later as it was so hard to write. I have adjusted my plan and have been running much much more. I think I realized all of the easy gains I had a available going from sedentary to racing. Now I need to really earn the gains through more dedication and consistency.
