Thanks for the empathy, and congrats on your finish!

Fun to follow someone local. I ran the GW 10 miler too, but from farther back in the pack. I’m 57, but I just started running last year in conjunction with losing weight. I was hoping to finish between 1:50 and 2:00, but the heat got to me and I came in just over 2:06. I’ll try to pick my next 10 miler in a cool weather time and hope the 2:06 is easy pickings! The route was beautiful and it was very well run, except for when we back-of-the-pack runners had to deal with 2-3 minute waits at the 5 mile water stop due to low water pressure. My husband, who runs much faster than I do, says there was no problem when he ran through.
Keep on writing!
