Hmmm??<br /><br />That would be weird racing in a new place with new people and new shirts..hehehe.. Must be nice to see the trees and feel like you are back home..<br /><br />Question- Does one of your racing friends have highlights? Just askin ;)<br /><br />I want a goat too, but a tiny goat, that would be SWEET.. I smelled cow pasture my ENTIRE run in Buckley that is probably why I had to stop running.<br /><br />FYI NO CHILAXING during a race unless you are running for fun, with a friend or at Disney...come on now!!<br /><br />Love ya!!

I appreciate the idea of holding back a bit to make sure you don't fall over, but hitting a 7:23 pace to finish?! I would totally support running an 8:00 mile #1! <br /><br />Either way, congrats on the finish.
