Spent the memorial day weekend in Boulder with my brother as we do every year. Culmination was running the Bolder Boulder. Ran a minute slower than last year but about what I expected. I don't think I run this race very smart, but I have yet to figure out how to run it smart. The middle section is just too hard with too many turns, hills, and too many people jostling for space. I ran out of AA this year instead of A which probably slowed me down a bit. Still managed to score third in the 50 year old age group. I get third every year. At least I am consistent. Tried to find Aaron at the start but it was too crowded and chaotic. I think I am getting too old and tired for this 10K stuff especially a hard one like this.
