Pretty nervous but excited too. Gun went off and we went out slow, 70 the first lap. Took the lead and ran a 66, held it and came&nbsp;through the mile in 4:30ish. Someone else took it and I let some people pass and got boxed a little. Got back up there with about 500 to go. Didn&rsquo;t have the kick the last lap to hang with the top 2 guys. Really happy to get on the podium and run that time off of a slow start. Did a long cool down on some sweet trails with this guy from Washington. This has been an incredible experience and brooks is a really sweet company&nbsp;with some great people. Also loved being in Seattle&nbsp;for a couple days and getting a trip that very few people do. Met a lot of cool dudes and had a lot of fun here. Also, huge congrats to my boys from NAU, Tyler (4th) and Matt (5th) in the 10000 and Andy (4th) in the 5000. What legends&nbsp;</p> Fri, 08 Jun 2018 06:00:00 Thu, Jun 07, 2018 http://raffrunner.fastrunningblog.com/blog-06-07-2018.html <p>In Seattle!! Did 3 with some of the guys and a brooks pro runner. 2 more by myself&nbsp;with 4 strides in the last mile. Green river trail, really liked how green it was.

Ran mid 36 I think, great environment and course. Really grateful for all the warriors who have sacrificed everything for the nation we have today. They can never be thanked enough for their priceless, selfless service in our behalf.</p> Mon, 28 May 2018 06:00:00
