Comments: I was supposed to use this as a training run, I ran with my friend Steph who is damn fast.... I looked down when we were close to the 1 mile marker and we were in the low 7's, I told here we were going way to fast, so she agreed to slow down. I wanted to do this race as a training run and she was doing it as well (her training time was somewhere under 1:50). She ended up dropping me around 2.5 miles and went on her way. I had on two shirts and had to take one off during a aide station (hence my 9 something split). Felt good except for mile 9,10 but pushed thru... This ended up being 85-90% of my race pace... So much for just a easy training run, I let the race get control of me... What would you do differently?: Maybe not go out so fast... But other than that it was a great run after all, felt fine after run. Post race
Warm down: Walked out of stadium then up to the ACME 3 sports tent, got a recovery drink and a beer, hung out and chatted. Left and went home. What limited your ability to perform faster: Nothing I think I could have went a little faster but was trying to hold back. Oh I did have to go to the bathroom around mile 9 but there were not enough porta johns on the course. Event comments: Was cool to finish on the jumbo tron...... I was happy with my time, all in all a good day. Well except for my belly hurting really bad afterward.... Last updated: 2006-03-18 12:00 AM
