Mackinaw Island 8 Miler

8 Miles - 54:07 - 6:46 Pace

Pretty good run today, the weather was perfect, the course was flat, and I ran a pretty good run.  I took 34th place out of about 1100 runners, got third in the division, so I got a nice little trophy, my first running hardware, so that was exciting.  The only thing you had to worry about on this course was the horse apples.......all over.

I had a good time for the run, but I didn't feel great, I was feeling it one mile in, which I thought was a little early.   I did start a little fast again, but not too bad, about 6:38 for the first mile, but I settled into a nice pace, and even picked it up the last 4 miles.  Think I will surely do this one again next year.
