Burlington, North Carolina

Reprise of last year, with a few miles added. Great race…fun course, great food, entertaining experience. Quite a few friends on the course…

Congratulations to Nathan Toben for 3rd Overall, Graham Zimmerman 4th Overall, and Amy Berkman for taking 1st Female Overall. Others of note placing were Laura Maile (2nd AG) and Steve Rothwell (2nd AG).

Could have gone out a bit slower and ended up stronger at the end. Positive splits are a thing, apparently. Felt good all the way throughout…but after looking at the consistency and placement of the splits, am left wondering how much was me and how mich was the rain and mud?

Enjoyed the run overall. Rain started about 20 minutes in and never really stopped. If I had pushed harder on the front loop, would there have been as much muck on the second? Rambling…as an happy with the results.

Official time: 2:02:30.51 (9:21/mile)
