Comments: went out way too fast (6:58 1st mile) and had hard time catching my breath. I know better, but I felt strong, besides my breath. At mile 2 I got some water and walked 10 steps to drink it and caught my breath. What would you do differently?: Well, I got a PR, so I hesitate to say. But, I really started too fast. I need to get a visor for sunny races. Post race
Warm down: cheered my friend on in, stretched, ate some watermelon, drank some water and took off. What limited your ability to perform faster: it was a really hot freaking morning, but I don't know if I could've gone any faster...My best 5K time is 23:39, so I'm darn pleased with what I did! Event comments: I love this race...we started about 15 minutes late-there was an accident nearby that held some folks up. It was really hot and humid by start time. I was dripping before even starting. One guy passed out at mile 1. He was treated at the race probably for dehydration. There were lots of volunteers and smiling faces. Great crowd support-lots of cheers. Last updated: 2005-07-02 12:00 AM
