Definitely not beating myself up, just trying to put things in perspective. That was more of a 'here is what I'm capable of if I execute a solid plan' theme. In a lot of ways I'm probably ahead of where I was this time last year. Thanks Nick. Definitely not beating myself up, just trying to put things in perspective.

Also, you raced one and ran one as a good training run. Then, on top of that, the mud has got to cost some considerable time. Don't beat yourself up! You are a great athlete, and if you execute your plan, I am sure you can match or beat your Timberline pace.
