It was nice chatting with fellow Red River Runners - Anne-Marie S, Martin S, Nick F, Eric P, and Stacy K - before the start of the race. I decided to try to run with Martin S in the beginning hoping I could stay with him longer than the last race. I was able to keep up with Martin S for a little while until he started opening up a gap after the pedestrian bridge. He is fast! After that, I decided to just run as quick as I could to try to keep my lead for the women’s race. After the turn around point, Anne, another woman racer, caught up with me and passed me. I was starting to feel the fast pace I went out at and wasn’t able to stay with her, but I kept her in view the rest of the race. As I was nearing the finishing hill, Eric P gave me some extra motivation cheering, and as I was kicking it in hoping to close the gap between me and the top woman. I wasn’t able to catch her at the end, but I definitely closed the gap some. I felt like I had a little too much kick at the end and maybe should have pushed harder in the race. That was a fun race! Thanks for all those who were cheering :)

You looked strong Auralee at the end! I think you are right in saying you maybe had a little too much left at the end. That's ok though that just means you are going to drop time at that distance pretty readily! Nice to see you again and it was fun to just watch people run today!
