Comments:

I am pretty pleased with this even tho I know in the grander scheme of running its extremely slow. Also I a was sick with a cold. We did a 5K about 6 weeks ago and that was my first run since my left knee revision ACLR. I was over 2 minutes faster so I am very happy and I was hoping to go sub 40 minutes. I did the first mile in 12:06 and its been a LONG long time since I have seen anything approaching that. I did this on a 4:1 run walk for the most part. David walked the course.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing I just need to run more. My brace was adjusted last week and rubbed the back of my leg raw but will get it fixed this weel
Post race
Warm down:

Went in the gym and waited for D

What limited your ability to perform faster:

5 major knee surgeries in less than 2 years. Seriously its a miracle I can run at all.

Event comments:
