Santa Anita Derby Day 5K (22:16)

ARCADIA, Calif. -- What a cool course. You go out through the Arboretum and end up finishing on the track at the Park. Really cool. Great race. Couple lil hills and a delay at the start which might have made this time end up not a PR, but it was a better run than the LB T-day. It was really well done from an effort mgt perspective. It was fantastic. Could have perfected it a bit here or there and gotten sub 7 even...but this was great. Finished 149 out of 2300ish. Master's (40+) ran separate. 28 of like 300 in the age group. Pace was solid, hills and downhills were well managed and it was great. Probably could have done a better 3rd mile, but really liked how it felt. And what a cool race. Just awesome. That is a beautiful racetrack.

JDP ran masters @ 24 mins. Christine ran around 30 with a major delay at the start...we're facing down the Culver City run...to defend our trophy. New Team Turbo shirts in hand...
