Ravenswood Trail Race - Gloucester

 Zipped up Rt 128 to 127 to the Ravenswood Trail Race. Signed up and got a 10 minute warm up. Got the the narrow start line. New course as the swamp walk was not available but the distance was expected to be 4.4 miles per RD, Dave Geary. First mile was a 7:43. There was some elevation on this one and had to focus on steps and caution to not trip up. Next mile gave us the awesome lookout out toward the ocean. That was a slow mile with a 9:23 followed by a 8:25 where the first women went by. Three more men ran by in the next mile and a half (9:17 into mile 4). Finished 15th overall in 38 minutes flat (8:34 pace per GPS) for 4.44 miles. I was not in the 1st print of results so I went to the Ab-Mac timing truck and worked with Joe Abelon for the next half hour helping him determine and enter in about 20 missing entries/times. Thus, the delay in age group and corrected results.
