 Run
Comments: Ran a consistent 5:30 for the first 4km. Dropped off a bit for the next few, then picked it back up for the last 2. Felt terrible around the 7.5km mark but fought through it. I drank some water around this point which made me feel bloated (even though I only had a little bit!). What would you do differently?: Practice more! Maybe not take in water on the 10k?? Anyone run into this problem?  Post race
Warm down: Pretty much non-existant. Had to go watch everyone I knew running the 1/2 marathon finish. What limited your ability to perform faster: Overall fitness. Event comments: Run seemed more disorganized than last year (I didnt run last year but I watched). They didn't line people up for the race, so slow and fast people were all mixed together. This was annoying because the course was fairly narrow in the beginning. Last updated: 2009-05-27 12:00 AM

Champion 5522  Frisco, TX | Subject: RE: LA Weight Loss 10k (Calgary Marathon Race Weekend) Nice job. Way to tough it out on the back half of the run. By the way, your results would indicate that you are a solid FOP'er! -Andy |

Champion 7163 Verona WI--Ironman Bike Country! | Subject: RE: LA Weight Loss 10k (Calgary Marathon Race Weekend) Hey Sarah Nice job on the run today. Not sure exactly why you would have run into the bloated feeling, but do you feel like maybe you swallowed a lot of air? I know that happens to me swimming. Congratulations again. Suzy |

Elite 3072 san francisco | Subject: RE: LA Weight Loss 10k (Calgary Marathon Race Weekend) Great job Sarah!!! like Suzy said, perhaps you swallowed too much air when you took your water. I try to slow down enough so I'm not gulping and bouncing when taking water during running races. I used to have that problem on the bike but now tilt the bottle almost upside down before getting a gulp. |

Master 2436 Apex, north carolina | Subject: RE: LA Weight Loss 10k (Calgary Marathon Race Weekend) Sarah, great job! Maybe try burping on the run to relieve the bloating. FOP mean Front of the Pack (vs MOP - middle- and BOP-back of the pack). You should be proud!!! |
