Run
Comments: Just wanted to see how fast I could go today. Wanted to be under 19:30 for sure. Started out with Brad Cooper and 2 other guys..They were flying from the start..Then I had 2 guys pass me in the next mile..I knew both of them and I knew they were fast..Ok no one else gets to pass me..I kept my pace and my breathing and legs felt good..Got to the final hill and just picked up the cadence and shortened the steps..Came around the corner and the clock said 18:53 I knew I could break 19 so I kicked it in a was just under..THe official time says 19 but when I crossed it said 18:57. So I am going with 18:59. Fun times. What would you do differently?: I need more speed work Post race
Warm down: Did the 1k fun run and ran with some kids from my school. What limited your ability to perform faster: speed work Event comments: Fun for the kids,lots of little games to play afterwards..Saw Dan, Matt and Jen and that is always nice to see them.. A little dissapointed with the agegroups and how they did awards. I will talk to the RD as she wanted to know how to make it better next year..Oh well all is good. Last updated: 2009-09-30 12:00 AM
