Run
Comments: Not a good race. I wish I had been able to keep warmer. I ran at a good pace, but couldn't get warm. The cross wind kept my fingers and nose cold until 4.5 km. I had some serious side stitches from 4 km on. I just never felt comfortable, I didn't have that race instinct. I wanted to catch some of my pacers, but just couldn't make the move. My goal was 22 minutes or better, so I'm happy with my time, but I wish it had been a better run. What would you do differently?: I've got to find a solution to eating and running in the mornings. I ate 2 hours before the run, a bagel & a banana, but just felt my gut getting worse the whole time. The wind really made dressing tricky for me. Ususally I end up wearing too many layers, today I probably had one to few. Another layer on top and a second pair of golves would have helped me feel more comfortable. Post race

Two friends, Jake and Steve, came to my place, we jogged over to the RF from here. By the time the race started, I was getting cold.
