PR @ Twilight 4 Miler

Last night was the Twilight 4 miler in Ashburn, VA.

My Results:
Net Tim Gun Tim Net Pace 2 Mile
38:51 39:32 9:42 20:13

I started off trying to maintain a 10:00 min/mile. I found a few people along the way I could pace myself with. The one I stayed with the longest (until I passed him) was a NYC Triathlon shirt guy. He made running look easy and I think that helped calm me down. At some point near the end I saw Matt on the sideline looking for me. He jumped in and cheered me the last bit of the race. Even though I couldn't talk at the time and tell him thanks, it really helped! He cut back out just before the finish line and I propelled myself forward to make it in under my goal!


Matt had a great race as well:
Net Tim Gun Tim Net Pace 2 Mile
26:50 26:58 6:32 13:34


After finishing we walked around a little. Got some food and drinks and stayed to hear the awards. I saw the guy (when I was only 1/2 way) finish the 4 miler in under 20 minutes! We met some old guys who were crazy fast. Everyone was nice and I look forward to more great races!
