3:30 and, I think, about 33 seconds!

What went wrong: heart rate was WAY high. What went right: i have big balls of steel! ;)

So, I finally got my 3:30. I’m way happy about that.

More later. Writing this from the road.

Congratulations on the PB Mark. You definitely earned it. Taking off 8 minutes is a big deal. Now you can relax for a bit, enjoy.

Congratulations on the PR, though I know you expected more. Am very curious about the balls of steel.

Doesn’t that make a hugely distracting noise when those steel balls bang into each other, hehe! Great Job on the run!! Run Good!
