Note
Long day, up early to catch a plane, then working late to try and catch up. Hip flexor feeling better.
I have to think part of the reason for running well over the weekend was weighing a few pounds less than in recent years. It makes a difference. Though thanks to a fine run by Hammer on Saturday, I didn't quite make my goal of within 20% of the winner. But I got 800+ points on the IOF ranking system, better than the roughly 400 I got last year in Alabama. Irrelevant, but sorta cool.
Good to see Eric win on Sunday. He said at the finish that his goal was not to lose a single leg to me (I'd beaten him on three legs the day before), and he beat me on every single one. If that's what it takes to get him to run well, I'm happy to be the target. But I know Hammer had the potential to run at least a few minutes faster, and I hope Eric did too.
