Run
Comments: The run went really well! It was hard, though. My quads were burning and the very last hill was the steepest hill in the world, I'm sure. Call Guiness because I know it was. It was pure unadulterated EVIL! However, I think I did really well overall. I did a run/walk combination since it was just a training run. Due to the low number of participants I actually took first in my division and third in masters! Yeah! What would you do differently?: Nothing really except control the weather. Where is Lex Luthor when you need him? Post race
Warm down: Really more of a WARM UP! I was freezing when we finished. I ate a peanut butter and banana sandwich, received my masters place award (never did get my age place, though...I emailed and asked about it). What limited your ability to perform faster: The fact that I'm slow. Event comments: While the post race activities weren't much and there weren't many volunteers, it was their first race. I hope to do it again next year and I expect it'll be even better. Last updated: 2006-07-09 12:00 AM
