I did okay, but could certainly use improvement.

It was my first time to run the 3.2 mile trail, so the slight slopes and hills were a suprise, especially the last few hundred yards that were an uphill drive to the finish line.

I averaged 7:29 per mile - slightly on the slow side.

I placed 13th out of 55 runners in my division.

Categories excluded, I think I might have placed in the mid to low top 1/3 of all competitors? Fastest runner kept under a 5:20 pace - he was probably a quarter mile a head when I saw him hit the finish line.

Stayed for the awards ceremony and the raffel drawings. Didn't hear how much money was raised for the event, but I'm sure it was a success.

There were some good lookin' ladies there as well.
