10k PB - meat powered 6th place race finish

 Today I ran a 10km PB in very windy conditions, I finished 6th in 37:05. Overall I am happy with the performance but would have liked 6 seconds quicker. The conditions were tough with gusty winds that have resulted in sever weather warnings over here and I basically ended up running it solo with the lead pack of 4 ahead and one guy passing me with 2k or so to go. My pacing was excellent and I couldn't have done much more.
