Comments: I did not drink anything, since we were only going to do the 5k. Kepping cool was certainly not a problem. I did manage to pass a few folks, but really just am not a very good runner, (yet?). I have to call this a good run because it is a lot fasster than anything I have posted to date. The distance on the course is in question, but still, this is a good run under the circumstances. What would you do differently?: Train more. Do better at trying to stay dry before the event. Post race
Warm down: Sat around and sulked again. Tried to convice myself that maybe I would luck out in the rankings since so many people left early. -No such luck. What limited your ability to perform faster: Even after the start I was considering just bailing out and getting in the truck. Obviously I was not particularly committed to the race! Once I ran past the truck though, there was no turning back. It wasn't a bad run, it just pointed out how much slower I am than the average runner. Event comments: I still say that it would have gone a long way if Blue Sky Sports had offered to cut the participants a deal on next year's race since we didnt get to have one this year. I will consider doing a different event next year. I haven't had very good luck with this one. Last updated: 2005-05-06 12:00 AM

Stayed at Mark's house in P'tree City, thinking that this would save me an hour in the morning - not sure this helped. Didn't know the route and didn't get away on time. Had to rush the whole morning. got there late, which gives you a bad parking place as well. Fortunately (?) the race start was delayed due to the weather.
did a little bit of running back and forth to the truck. Mostly we stood around in the rain.
