Paris Mountain 20k 2007

Took 2 minutes off of last year’s time. Yeah!  Andy lead the way, and I tried to follow.  Man, he’s fast – especially downhill.

Congrats Andy and Calhoun on a great race, and thanks for making me run faster than I wanted to – especially up the mountain.

Splits below:

2006 time (first) vs. 2007 time (red)

  • Mile 1 – 7:33 (right before you make the turn up Paris Mtn.) 7.24
  • Mile 2 and 3 – 17:56/ 25:30 (I never saw the 2 mile marker. This is going up the mountain, so essentially 9 minute miles on the way up) 17.10/24.34
  • Mile 4 – 8:17 / 33:46 – 7.59/32.34
  • Mile 5 – 8:05 / 41:51 – 6.57 / 39.31
  • Mile 6 – 6:01 / 47:53 (No way! It was downhill, but I can’t run that fast. I think the markers must have been off a little) – 6.50 / 46.21
  • Mile 7 – 6:36 / 54:30 – 6.36 / 52.57
  • Mile 8 – 6:50 / 1:01:19 – 6.40/ 59.38
  • Mile 9 – 7:04 / 1:08:23 – 7.06 / 1:06:44
  • Mile 10 – 7:27 / 1:15:51 – 7.12 / 1:13:56
  • Mile 11 – 7:01 / 1:22:52 – 7.10 / 1:21:07
  • Mile 12 – 7:07 / 1:29:59 – 7.00 / 1:28:08

  1. Let’s beat that that time this year. I hope you’re feeling strong, the weather is not looking conducive for a PR at Shut-In this weekend. Finally a grim race up there. Endure it, embrace it. Part of it is about experiencing that environment. Sometimes it’s good sometimes it could care less about your comfort. Persevere. I’ll be pulling for you!
