            During the final sprint, I had to swerve around a car that was baking out and nearly had the whole lane blocked.  There was a dude and his wheel barrel with leaves in it waiting, so I had to swerve around him, too. 
That maneuver was worth at least half a second.  Due in some part to this detour, the loop was 1.45 seconds longer than my record.  1.45 seconds…imagine that—count to two--already done.  I looked at my watch, and if felt like a great let down.  But it was so short!  Really!  When you are running at the top of your physical ability seconds are a lifetime.
