I love this. I was pretty disapointed with the my RNR time this year. Honestly I thought I did better than last year. Oh Well.
Just a bit sore today and wore flip flops at work to let the blisters heal. Recovery run tomorrow. Its going to be painful, but a good painful.
Nothing to feel bad about. You did it, and you were faster. And from what I read, the course was long, even on Mapmyrun.
