Running 25:49 [5] 7.82 km (3:18 / km)
Joe I Vigil Invite Season Opener
Started off steady in the middle of the field before moving up to the front group after about 1km. Stuck on the back of that group until the start of that last lap where I moved back a bit. I was around 15th, 9th ASU man here. However, managed to rally a bit and pick off three places on the last lap to finish 11th, 7th ASU man.
Definitely found it hard racing up this high, a bit short of breath and feeling the pace which would of been manageable at sea level. However, I'm happy to put that performance down early on and be in that top 7. Probably means I'll be racing again next week though because top 5 or 6 got automatic spots for the Stanford meet. Looking forward to building upon this.
