FERRY BUILDING RUN 4M

Cruised over to San Francisco with Slowrunner77 for a race along the waterfront.  He wanted to race and when I saw the chance to run on a flat course at sea level, I jumped.  The DSE club put the race on and I felt envious seeing a club that puts on so many races.  The race went 2 miles out & back.  Slowrunner77 won in 22:42.  I felt a good run coming on and when I saw him on the return in under 14 minutes I felt pumped.  I hit the turnaround in 16:35 and realized sub-36 would happen so I started to push and 20 minutes in I started hurting and realized sub-35 would happen then in the final mile, since I was already dead, I pushed under 34 for a 33:24 finish.  I lost 13 seconds in the second half but still felt pretty happy about the run.  Later we hit up the City Beer Store for some celabratory adult beverages.

Not a bad day
