Event warmup:

stretch more, walked to start of race.. did walking calf raises to warm up and stretch achilles

Run

Comments:

Race never separated.. made it tough to get run rhythm.. this caused achilles to get very irritated towards in end of run..

What would you do differently?:

I think i would have started closer to the front of the pack. i don't know what i did to get this injury.. so i don't know what to do to prevent it.

Post race

Warm down:

stretch more... drank two beers.. got some chow.. walked back to car

What limited your ability to perform faster:

injured achilles... hindered running ability. i didn't run much..

Event comments:

could have used another water station in the race.. and also gatorade.. but food and beer were great..
