Pre-race routine:

Drove downtown to Columbus with GFs mom. Legs were tired from travelling, but I wasn't expecting much. Had some coffee, ate a toast, gel pack about 20 min prior. Then stood around inside and stretched a bit.

Almost noe. Stood around and stretched. No jogging warm up.

Warm down:

met marilynn and left. Drank a water in the car.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Cardio was good, mental was good, legs could use more longer runs.

Event comments:

This race is simply a training tool for the Columbus running groups. It isn't designed to be an A/B/C race for anyone. Just a timed, organized training run. I thought it was a wonderful event, perfect idea to get new folks familiar with later events. Well Done

Soon after I got married, I decided I needed to get motivated to work out and focus on getting back into shape. I could barely jog a quarter-mile without needing a walk break.

I think quite truly for the first time I 'get it'. It's not just about the fitness. It's not just about the great little endorphin rush as you hit 5, 10, 15 miles...its not just the medal at the end.
