![]() Run
Comments: Poured in the first 15 minutes of the race and I started too far back in the pack, so spent the first 3-4 miles avoiding people and water on the streets which I'm sure came back to haunt me a bit at the end (and maybe running in wet stuff). But, my time was better than last year despite all that, so I'm happy with the run overall. Did manage to stay focused despite all the issues - happy with my mental game in the race. Last 1.5 miles was in a considerable pain for me. What would you do differently?: Need to get some better wet gear. Didn't have the right shorts or socks for this race. ![]() Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Conditions and probably a bit short on training the last couple of months. But this was a good training run for upcoming 10 miler. Event comments: Good race to benefit Moffitt Cancer Center. And, if you like wings at 9am, don't miss it. Last updated: 2012-03-04 12:00 AM

Woke up at 2am b/c of the heavy winds and couldn't get back to sleep. Finally gave up at 4 and made coffee and had some breakfast. Got to the race around 6am with plenty of time. Did make sure to hydrate more than usual the last few days.
Light jog and lots of stretching.
