I ran over to the McDonalds in Seymour and Joe Bell picked me up on his way through.  He had overslept so we were in a big hurry to the race.  Once getting to Louisville we were stuck in traffic on the off ramp of I-65.  I jumped out of the car and ran over to Papa John's Stadium with Joe's ID in hand.  I still had to sign up for the race.  I made it just in time to sign up and pick up Joes bib for him.  He ditched the car at a gas station and ran over as well.  No time to make the essential bathroom break.  We ran to the start line while the National Anthem was being sung pinning our bibs in route.  Weather was a nice 48 degrees and freezy.  My plan today was to start out at 6:45s and through the park, then cut down from there.

 

Mile 1:  This mile is pretty flat.  I ran the centerline of the road.  Wind to our backs.  With the crowd and wind I was a little fast.  6:37

 

Mile 2:  Again this mile is flat as well.  the crowd was opening up some.  I found a group and crowded in behind them.  Still a little fast at 6:27

 

Mile 3:  In this mile we are intering Iroquios Park.  We are climbing and the pack breaks up.  This race has over 8,000 runners.  Being 10 miles, there are a wide range of abilities from the novice to the very seasoned. The hills usually separate them out.  I don't plan on upping my level of effort through the hills today.  6:45 for this mile.

 

Mile 4:  We climb another 70 feet in elevation.  Its wooded through here so little effect from the wind.  6:45

 

Mile 5:  The next few miles are rolling and twist through the park.  Mostly just a single file line of runners straightening out the corners.  6:35

 

Mile6:  Same story.  6:34

Mile 7:  We are coming out of the park and wrapping back to the runners entering the park.  A nice downhill helps pick up the pace.  However, the wind is in our face now and will be until the end.  6:16

 

Miles 8: Straight toward downtown.  6:26

 

Mile 9:  6:19

Mile 10:  Finishes on the 50 yard line of U of L's Papa John's Stadium.  6:13

 

1:05:03
