Yesterday was an excellent day for a race. The weather was a tad humid but in the high 50F's low 60F's with cloud cover. This race was in conjunction with their marathon and half marathon. There was rain south of there in Michigan, but in Traverse City it held off all day with the sun peaking through later in the day. So to make a long story short the race went well except for some minor digestive irritation. The course is an out and back and runs along the lakefront, nice and scenic. Went out a bit fast then scaled it back a bit and held the pace steady. My goal going in was to break 40 min. This was my second 10K since getting back into competitive running in '08. Splits 6:17,6:32,6:28,6:29,6:23,6:16,last.2-6:02. Finished 39:27 a PR by over 2 min. 21st overall and 3rd AG. Felt like I needed to run further watching all the full & half marathoners. So we found an excellent bike path and did a 30 mi bike tour after.

Great job on the PR and going sub-40. I'm glad we didn't get the T-Storms they were forecasting.

Nice job! It was a beautiful morning for a race. The area bike paths there are very nice indeed. We want to go back up there for a weekend with out bikes.
