Cranberry Run

I headed into Keene for the 31st Annual Cranberry Run. It was good to see a lot of the Keene High Boys show up to race the 4.5 miles. I think it was a record year for attendance with over 300 runners. A usual a few ambitious runners took it out at a blistering pace. I caught up to them about half a mile into the race and ran solo for the remainder of the coarse. I was really curious to see how I felt so I didn't hold anything back. This is the fastest I have run in over a month. I felt pretty good and think the 200's Wednesday helped out. In the end I finished in 23:16 (5:11 mpm). It is 11 seconds slower than last year but I am actually more pleased because of all the long races I have done recently. Starting to get motivated!
