The McMillan Calculator had me running a 36:12 10k, which seemed hard for me to comprehend, especially since my 10k PR is 37:29 which was run last year in Longmont on a much easier/faster course. I knew a PR was a given and the race temperature of 50 degrees was ideal.

It's always risky opening a burger joint in the same space occupied by a previous burger joint ...
According to the McMillan calculator my best race of the year was my 17:47 5k back in March, which is equivalent to a 1:22:12 half marathon. I figured I could run sub 1:22 on Sunday, thus that was my goal. The previous week was spent moving, thus little sleep and my back has been in total agony. The night before I made the mistake of eating a Philly Cheesesteak and my stomach was a mess. I woke up on race day and ran over to King Soopers to find something to eat for ...
