Another pretty nice Atlanta race. Interesting course, well organized and a non-standard distance. I think it's safe to say this is my 4-mile post mayan apocalypse PR.

I had set a totally arbitrary goal of top 10 prior to the race, based on previous years results.

In the first mile, I felt incredibly terrible. My heart rate was all over the place from about 1 minute in until about 10 minutes in. However the first mile was 5:46 and I was in exactly 10th place. I was about ten seconds behind the pack of people 6-9, which included Jonathan Gomez and Peter Kotchen, people who are normally slightly ahead of me.

Second mile was 5:52 and I was gradually losing ground and I could hear several pairs of footsteps behind me, but right at mile 2 my heart decided that it was going to start working correctly. A couple of people passed me, but then like a complete jerk I passed them right back and was all like, "my heart is working now, yay".  I went back and forth with some guys for the next mile 5:49. The last mile is all uphill so I only eke out a 6:03, but I manage to drop the guys that I was with pretty substantially.

I slowed down a bit at the end of the run. I didn't feel especially tired, I just couldn't get myself to move.
