Signed up for this one in the spring and I just haven't done my long runs to get ready for it.  Wasn't sure I was going to do it until the morning.  Decided to take my medicine and do the race.  Beatuful day for a run.  I started behind the 4:30 pace group and just took it easy.  I caught up with the 4:00 group but at 21 my knees started to protest.  I lost about 10 min in the last 5.2 due to stretching and a little walking.  

All in all, it wasn't as bad as I thought.  I made it home by noon for work.  

Well run and pretty well supported race.  Liked the little post race jackets and food boxes from fitful.com.  It is a very challenging course with hills everywhere.  At least the last half mile was flat...
