Run
Comments: I didn't expect the weather to be so cold, but after about a 1/2 mile, I was fine. For this race I wanted to push myself a bit to see if I could maintain a sub 8min. mile. Last year my avg. pace was around 8:20min. miles, so I was hoping to see some improvement, which I did..yay! I felt good throughout the race and even at the end, so I could have probably pushed myself even more. I was thrilled to find that I got first for my division (18-49 female Non-DU students). I got a great sweatshirt for a prize too. :) What would you do differently?: Pushed myself a little bit more. Post race
Warm down: I grabbed a water and walked around a little bit to get my heart rate down, then did some light stretching. It was still only 10degrees outside, so I started getting really cold and didn't want to stay around in the cold. Event comments: This was a pretty good race. It was a perfect 5K for a Sunday morning where the weather was cold and I probably would have stayed in my P.J.'s all day if I didn't have the race to go to. Last updated: 2009-01-25 12:00 AM

I basically sat in the car with my husband because it was only 10 degrees outside and snowing. We lined up at the start about 10min. before the race.
Jumping up and down in place to stay warm. :)
