Today was a bit of a disappointing effort, ended up with 38:13 by my watch for the 6 miles, or 3:57/k. Not really sure what to say, as last year I ran 37:08 and by my times from the 2k and 1k sessions my fitness is better this year. It was a bit hotter and more humid than usual, and I finished around some of the same people I have in years past, so it's a bit tough to assess. But overall the field seemed about as fast as last year so no real excuses. Fast first k was out the window with a ton of traffic, and after that I never really got going and struggled in the later stages before the downhill finish. Splits below.
