2013 scotland run 10k: race photos and results


it was chilly for the scotland run this morning - the wool caps handed out at packet pick-up came in handy! a lot of the runners wore them.  but, on the positive side, it was sunny and a great day to be outside.  there was a pretty big field - over 7,700 finishers!

time wise, all i wanted was to run a solid 8 minute pace and finish under 50 minutes.  i was pleasantly surprised with my 48:48, 7:53 pace (but well off last year's 46:34, 7:30 pace).  i was even happier with the run itself because i managed cut down the pace of each successive mile: from just over 8 minutes for the first to just under 7:30 for the last one!

this was my 4th nyrr race of 2013.  tomorrow, hopefully, i'll line up for the vctc urban environmental challenge 10k in van cortlandt park :D

here are the race results from nyrr/
