Good run Dan. Too bad we couldn't get Navy, but they're right there for the picking.

it was a good day for the lehigh guys.

we nearly beat navy, as their 5 and 6 guys finished with our 4 and 5. i couldnt quite catch their two guys over the last 1000m, but we will be right there knocking on the door in a few weeks.

weather was perfect. we were running in 60-65 degrees, with sunshine and a clear sky.

mile one passed in 4:52 and flying, and then i didnt hear any other splits except the 5k (16:11). the race was fast throughout, as i was running very much out of the control down the hills in the woods. cemetery hill was not as terrible as it was cracked up to be, but it was fun to wrestle with the steep up and then nearly immediate steep down.

on a more interesting note, i met one of our heroes:


hope all is well in the homeland. i will be in town next weekend. i will talk to you guys later this week about linking up for some runs. have a good weekend!

thanks for catching this one, justin.

Very good race, Red Robin! You guys should all be well under 26 at Paul Short.

Did you tell Willis that you knew David Mertz?
