Results!!

Went into the race untrained (if that's a word). The longest I had run in over 6 months was a 10 miler last sunday.

Won my age group with a 57:45. Finished 50th out of several thousand runners. Managed to run negative splits 19:30 1st 5k, then an 19:08 then 19:07.(my hat blew off my head with 1000 meters to go and i went back to get it which cost me at least 10 seconds :)
The most important result was the one I needed. HUMILITY
To finish behind guys that have never beaten me was the kick in the ol' ars that will propel me through the winter.
By running the 15k I found my injury has pretty much faded. I've been pussy footing around for several months thinking my competitive running days were over.

Now I know I can come back. And MARK IT DOWN ........I will be back. 2011 is going to be a kick ass and take names year.
I know talk is cheap so I'll shut up and get to work.
