Hey, nice race! Entering on a whim is always good. No time to second guess your fitness. You have racing plans for this summer/fall?

From C James on Tue, Apr 28, 2015 at 18:36:38 from 76.185.216.149

Hey! No real big racing plans, I think the biggest on my schedule is Memphis Half. How about you?

Horrible starting experience, I was stuck behind a bunch of slower runners at the start, do not know why they thought they needed to be at the front...ugh

Came back ok but never had a chance with the leaders after such a bad start

Nice race! Bummer on the slow pokes. No fun getting stuck behind them. Kind of ruins the race when you have to try to play catch up for the remainder.
