Very dissapointed with my time in this race.  I keep telling myself not every race can be a great one, but it still frustrates me that I was 2 minutes slower than last year.

I just have to get over this one.

1- 5:29

2- 5:36

3- 6:10

4- 7:10  -- Slow up the dirt trail

5- 7:25 -- ""

6- 6:42 -- Faster but not fast enough

7- 7:05 -- Slowed a little

8- 6:31 -- A little Better

9- 6:57 -- Slower again

10- 6:49  - not much quicker

11- 7:04 - Slow again

12- 6:59 -- ""

13- 6:37 -- At least finished slightly quicker

 Uncomfortably warm for sure and a late start with the

women starting 30 minutes earlier.  The race was totally

disorganized.
