Down to Holyoke for the %K around the reservoirs. Did a lap of the course to warm up. Very windy, otherwise beautiful evening.
trail running race 22:27 [4] 3.1 mi (7:15 / mi) +5ft 7:14 / mi

Strange start to the race -- felt really tired after a couple hundred yards, breathing way harder than I wanted to. But eventually things calmed down. Got around the course pretty well, just not quite fast enough, missed the age-69 record by about a dozen seconds.
And they were doing results on an age-graded basis. Second overall in that, also by just a few seconds. Though a friend of mine in his early 60s who can still run 18+ for 5K would have won very easily. If he had shown up…. :-)
Good effort, anyway. And then hung around afterwards with Steve and his friends at the Elks, had a beer. Life is OK.
