Thanks for typing this for me Michelle.

The plan was 4 miles marathon pace, 1 mile tempo (so gear shift), then break, then 4 miles marathon pace, 1 mile tempo pace.  We did it! 

First set:  not sure on first mile split, probably 6:20, 6:22, 6:05, 5:57, 5:32.  The first set is mainly to just get you tired for the second set.   After our first 5 mile set we turned around and cheered Josse and caught up with Kellie, then ran with her to mile mark 6 (we got water and I had a second gu at the cherry campground at 5.5 down).

Second set:  6:12, 6:08, 6:05, 6:20, 6:00.  All miles were by marker except the first mile, but the net of the first two miles (12:20) is accurate.  Also we never found the mile 11 marker, but I think we went a little long, since my watch tends to mark these miles longer than the road markers from the race.  We shed our long sleeves and gloves one mile into the second 5 mile set. The last mile is mile 11 of the race, a yucky mile with a short steep hill.  Tyler was stronger than me on the uphill, but I was able to kick at the end and finally put some heat on him, after 9.5 miles of him putting heat on me
