If it hadn't been for my lining up a little towards the back and taking me 13 seconds to get to the start line, I might have actually made it 37:30. Instead I was 37:40 being 127 out of 607 and 8 out of 30 in my age group. Despite making the goal time that I wanted, it was by no means easy or that enjoyable while I was running. I started to get a stitch in my diaphram area around mile 2 and it stuck with me for the entire race. My legs felt fine for the entire race, it was my core muscles that felt like crap. I think it was that I was in auto-pilot for those last 2 miles that kept me on target. Actually, I almost ran negative splits for the entire race, which absolutely baffled me because I SWORE that I was slowing down for the last mile, which I ran my fastest… go figure. So here is my box score:
| Split | Split Distance | Overall Distance | Split Time | Split Pace | Overall Time | Comments |
| 1 | 1.0 | 1.0 | 7:40 | – | 7:40 |   |
| 2 | 1.0 | 2.0 | 7:44 | – | 15:24 |   |
| 3 | 1.0 | 3.0 | 7:25 | – | 22:49 |   |
| 4 | 1.0 | 4.0 | 7:52 | – | 30:21 |   |
| 5 | 1.0 | 5.0 | 7:05 | – | 37:40 | Terry's “chip” time 37:26 |
