Run
Comments: My first race! I started in the back and many people tore past me early on. I passed many of them plus others consistently throughout the race. I focused on my HR monitor and my breathing and staying focused on not running too fast. My HR monitor kept me honest...the best instant feedback. No surprises. What would you do differently?: Have more faith in myself. I didn't stay for the stats or the awards cuz i thought I would find out i was slow. Reality check: I came in first in my age group. Post race
Warm down: Helped a fellow racer who had fallen and scraped up her hands. Got the first aid kit and bandaged her up. Drank water. What limited your ability to perform faster: Nothing...I did my best. Last updated: 2008-02-12 12:00 AM
