Decent for how tired I have been today (Maintenance: Z4 Fast Finish)

9/919 overall, 8/387 M, 2/76 M35–39! Felt great! I actually did my race plan!!! Official pace 6:37, which is exactly what I was estimating I could do coming into this. That feels almost as good as the time does.

More fun details:

• My fastest time in Colorado by almost a minute—I ran Colfax 2021 in 1:27:35.
• Solidly 2 minutes faster than I was at Colfax this spring.
• My third fastest finish ever… and the other two were at sea level, not 6,000 feet. Adjusted for altitude, this was certainly my best performance ever.
• The girls ran the 5K (Jaimie paced Kate) and did a great job!
• I talked Levi Wall into doing this one too (after getting him to do Colfax in the spring) and he nailed his target pace! Spreading the running bug FTW. 😏
• Minor annoyance: I lost 10–12s to a badly marked turn near the end of it (ran past, had to turn around). So it easily could have been sub 1:26:30!
