Peachtree Road Race

41st Peachtree Road Race
60,000 of my closest friends ran the annual 4th of July 10k.
I was in group B, which started 5min after the elites! Fancy me!

Splits - (according to my watch)
Mile 1 - 7:41
Mile 2 - 7:40
Mile 3 - 7:51
Mile 5 - 8:00
Mile 6 - 7:11 (not sure this split is believable - I think the watch got lost once we hit the large downtown buildings. At one point it said I had a pace of 8:45)
0.2 with a pace of 7:06

According to my watch, I did 6.38miles in 49:05 and 6.2 miles was 47:54.
According to my chip time and race info - my final time was 49:07 which put me 2941th/55090 overall, 507th/26705 in my gender, and 88th/3507 in my age group.

The best part of the race was the Air Force fly over during the National Anthem and getting a BEST TIME!! Yeah me!
No more races for a little while, just marathon training!

Enjoy!
