Placed 2nd (1st loser) in my age group in a 6.5 mile mountain trail run today. Some youngster (same age as me) beat me by 2 minutes. There were 4 in my age group today.
I took 1st place for low cumulative time in my age group in the Triple Crown challenge: 1mile hill climb Thursday, 10k road race yesterday, and todays trail race. There was one other guy in my age group that did all three. :bigeffindeal: So technically I finished next to last.

This is the elevation profile from the trail run. I was really fast the last 1.5 miles

MSRP was $2600, It was on sale for $2400, and I got it for $1800(open box).

Friends with a Manager at the local Best Buy, and he gave me a heads up because a guy bought it and returned it same day because his wife didn't like the design of the TV(has a wedge shape for a lower center of gravity and better sound.
