The hardest part was the 15 minutes before the race started. I wore my treksports with socks and it was again, like 15F and I think I stepped in a bit of slush. My toes were frozen until like the first mile in. It was also a good bit slippery on the roads. I've learned that my short forefoot running(as you're supposed to from everything I've read) is the best way to handle the slippery stuff.
I kept my pace around 9 minutes as I wanted to beat my last time.
Had some more side pains for a while. Tried the breathing on the opposite side foot plant which helps, but it was difficult to keep the breathing going enough, fast enough, etc.
But overall not bad. Probably should have kicked in the finish line sprint sooner, but it went well and a new PR!
And I got my first Technical shirt.
