You can look at it two ways: minus 4 minutes, 7 seconds or plus 12 seconds. The first was how much of a sprint course PR this was for me, the second how far out of qualification I landed for the 2015 5150 US Championship. I guess it is a glass half-full or half-empty proposition and mostly I’m choosing to feel glass half-full.
