Happy American Independence Day!
I ran my 3 mile race in 15:54, good enough for 4th out of 592. Perfect weather, sunny and about 65° F. The front two were gone after the first quarter mile. I set the chase pack pace till about 2.5 miles then the eventual 3rd and 5th place took over. With about a quarter mile to go I reeled one guy in and 3rd place was 15:47. I accomplished both my goals, sub 16 and beating the 5th place guy(who has been our top local guy for years).
