  • Comments: Kudos to the volunteers for braving the rain, wind & lightning. Well done race that should be on your list if you are anywhere nearby. In the grand scheme of things, one bad race isn't the end of the world. My family could care less if I ran a 1:20, 2:20 or 3:20 HM. I'm happy that I made it through relatively unscathed and am even healthy enough (and have the financial wherewithal) to train and race pretty much whenever I want to. I need to focus on my blessings and not my disappointments and move on. Doesn't necessarily remove the sting of a bad performance but as long as I learn from it I'll be fine.

  • Comments: Despite blowing up, I still got a PR. Not the one I was hoping for, but I'm not complaining. It'll come... On the other hand, I am totally stoked to see Samuel and James finish their first genuine 5K race. They were both fantastic. Samuel was chomping at the bit. (He got up at 4:45 and asked me whether we could go ahead and get over there...) He did a great job, as did James.
