Wachusett Mountain - race within a race

 Wachusett mountain has had an "up only" option for the last few years with most (about 80%) completing the up/down 10k.  Some race it in both directions while others may back off a bit on the downhill.  I raced both hard this year and was happy with the result.  I took the complete results and figured out the top 25 for the downhill section.  I got crushed despite running 5:39 pace for the 3.4 miles of mostly downhill running.  Only two guys passed me Paulo Amaral who had the fastest descent of the day (and offered some encouragement as he flew by) and Scott Vandermolen who passed me early in the descent and steadily pulled away.  Amaral and Wormald raced the Vermont Marathon the next day!  I'm still sore!!!
