Subject: RE: SWBKRUN MENTOR GROUP - OPEN Ok, 4.5 was still my longest run...was hoping to run about 8, then walk/run. Did not even make 3 when calves hurt. Was hoping to avg about 12-13 mostly walking. Ended up with 11:30 avg with lots of walking from mile 9-13 but did hurt after. Had issue with a couple of gals doing a walk/run..every time I would pass them, they would run to pass me. About mile 5, I passed them and moved clear to the right, (there was no-one around us ), as soon as I passed they started running, and ran so close that the one gal elbowed me in the chest...twice...I have a short fuse but told myself not to react...had a 5 minute conversation in my head but did not speak, or react...got going from there. All in all, a good run, sunny but about 30 degrees at the start. Warmed up to about 40 so was actually nice. Happy that I got outside and happy for the cookies and gummy bears at the finish! |
