![]() Run
Comments: We spent the week prior to the race packing our house for our move to Jax. The movers were at our house until 5 pm Friday. We finaly got to Jax at midnight. I was determined to do the run even though I was exhausted. My legs felt like lead during warm ups. Started too far back in pack. It was jammed with slow runners, walkers and even a double baby jogger. I had to weave around, slow down, speed up, etc to get past the slower runners. I passed the 10:40 pace group at mile 2, the 9:40 group at mile 6. My goal was 9 min per mile and I almost did it. What would you do differently?: Get to the start line earlier and closer to the front. ![]() Post race
Warm down: Walk through the expo area where it was air conditioned. What limited your ability to perform faster: Starting spot at the beginning. Being tired from the move. Event comments: Great race venue. If you are looking to do a PR this isn't the race for you. It is way too crowded to get a good pace. Last updated: 2007-03-25 12:00 AM

Drove to race site. Got there early to pick up packet.
Relax in car. Tried to rest my legs since they were so tired from all the moving the week before. Stretched and did a short run.
