Thanks for catching that result, Justin. The race was really great for me, as it was the first time in a couple of years (no lie) that I really felt like I was racing the WHOLE time. There was no point where I shut down and told myself I'd try again later. I was able to make moves the whole time and really roll.
Granted, the course was flatter than the OLD AC course, so you can imagine that my fast time is more an indication of that than anything else, but I do feel like I am finally in good shape. My splits were something like 4:53, 10:00, 15:04, 20:15, 25:04.10. The Princeton coach told ours the course is 7960m, so that equates to 25:11.5 for 8000m. I know that Jaron doesn't believe in equating times, so I am gonna call my 8k PR 25:04 just to make him angry.
Patriots and Regionals are looking good for our team, as we just have to hold it together a little while longer.
Good luck this weekend to those who have their big day. Do us all proud, as we know you will.
See you all for Turkey in a few weeks.
DAN

Dan, you have no idea how steamed I am over you just making up a new PR - I guess it is a new PR somehow, just a new PR for 7960 meters. Ha Ha!
Anyway, very good job and you guys better win on your home course! It is what you've worked four years for and it looks like you have a very good shot!
