Notes
Looking at last year's results and also from a (very) limited knowledge of the area, this looks like it's going to be a tough course. But that can be decieving. Try running the 1st mile a bit faster than 9:39 but no so fast that there's no way you can run the next two miles. This way, you'll have some padding so if it does turn out to be a little bit harder, you can slow down and still reach the time goal. Also, try to give everything you have in the race. Don't cross the finish line thinking "I could've gone faster". If I'm around you, I'll try to keep you up to date on how far we've gone with my handy dandy watch if there aren't any mileage signs posted. Lastly, if you don't need the water, skip the station. It will just slow you down. But, if you do need it, get it. Oh, one more thing-HAVE FUN!
