Dirt Cheap Trail race at Black Creek. My Garmin measured almost 0.1 mile farther this year, despite it being essentially the same course. I walked for 30 seconds each 8 minutes or so. Despite this, I was still 2 seconds faster than last year at the mile mark, but my heart rate was much higher. Then I lost 6 seconds during mile 2, 16 seconds during mile 3 and 21 seconds during mile 4. My pace was 4 seconds faster thru the final loop, but that was too little, too late.

I was 6 minutes behind the median finisher and about 4.5 minutes behind Geoff's mother who was only 31 seconds ahead of me at Lucien Morin in June.
