Krissy and I picked up Nakri on the
way up to Auburn NH for the NH10 mile, USATF New England Grand Prix. I ran this
2 years ago in just over an hour. I was aiming for 1:02-1:03 this year. The
weather was decent for August, not humid. I rolled through the early miles with
Jonas from Wicked who wanted to stick with my plan of low 6 minute pace. Joe
Shairs kept company in the early rollers. They dropped me after four miles as climbing was
beating me up and I was in a maintenance mode.
Mile 5 passed in 31:30 or so. There
was some decent up and downs in the 2nd half. I ran was flat at mile
8 but not many were passing by other than two Dirigo RC guys. Got to mile 9 and
my company and I all had the same idea: run hard down the hill. David Lapierre
ripped by me entering the final turns to the finish. I dug down to get back
next to him. He helped me wake up as I sprinted by him into the finish. I finished 101st
place, with a time of 1:04:24.4 (chip time). My last mile was the fastest of the day with a 6:02.
