Crazylegs Classic - Run8k

Good, I have been running the course somewhat the last couple of weeks so I had a really good idea where I needed to be for the hills and the flats in order for me to get under 40 min. Just knowing that and having the Garmin was a big advantage with training with them both before.

I wouldnt have a triathlon the next weekend and have trained more for just this race if I would want to finish much faster, but with the training focus on my bike lately I am very very pleased with the outcome.

After i finished i walked out the stadium and walked back on the course to find theresa and my parents. I found theresa heading into the finish and ran with her for a second and she was doing really good! Then i kept walking back cuz i told my dad that i would meet him and finish strong with him. That was my warm down, walk and run the last 1.5 miles. Worked for me.


Knee was a little bothersome with weather again, but other than that just my running experience lately has gone down with the bike taking most of the training.


This race is awesome, so many people that come back for this every year. Wish the weather was better, but great to see all the athletes out there cheering everyone on, the band playing for every wave when they take off, and then ending in camp randall is awesome. Love UW-Madison!
