Army Ten-Miler - Run10 Mile

Great Run! I set out at a better than expected pace and felt good. I starte at about and 8:20 pace and slowly built up over the whole race. Beside my half last week this is probably the best I have run in a loooonnnngg time. My nutrition and fluid intake was pretty much perfect. I had two GU's for the run. One at the start and then one at 45 mins. Water the whole way until the last water station I got some gatorade.

I had more in the tank than I thought but I didn't want to burn out the last mile or two. I could have gotten below 1:20 but it is still a PR by 6 minutes so I can't complain

Walk around and got some grub and did a little light stretching. It was kind of a long walk about to gear check-out and where I parked so it was a pretty good cool down walk afterwards.


Not much except just being familar with my what my body is telling me and perhaps being more familiar with the course would have helped.


The Army Ten Miler is a great race with great fan support the whole way. The festvities afterwards were good and the grub was too. I wish the signs would have been better for the trolleys that took you back to garment check-out. It made for a good cool down walk though. I will be sure to run this one again next year. Go Navy beat Army!!
