Comments: I decided to do this race last minute, knowing I would have to push the stroller, but it was a good way to see some friends and have a nice workout. little did I know I would come to kick ass! I started toward the back because I had the stroller, and at the start I really had a hard time getting through the crowd with the stroller-it was walls of people and I could not be very nimble, so I did the best I could and still had a good pace at the 1 mile mark. then I started laying down the hammer. I was screaming past people at this point and managed a 6:59 mile for mile 2- that's when I knew I had a chance to PR- so I went pedal to the medal and enjoyed the last 2 miles of mostly descent (my son was having a great time too racing with daddy) What would you do differently?: 1. lose some weight 2. continue to build 3. try it without a stroller and 3 yr old!

Warm down: met up with the BT and NAMC gang- then went to j Christophers for breakfast and destroyed an omelette. What limited your ability to perform faster: stroller- although I dont think it made a big difference- maybe 30 seconds? It was nice in the downhils, but It has a slight alignment issue pulling it to the right, so correcting it took extra energy, as well as slowing down the extra weight. Event comments: Great fast race course and very organized. I would reccomend it. Last updated: 2008-03-01 12:00 AM

Got up, drank some coffee and loaded up the stroller and drove to the race. Met up with some people and chatted before race time.
not much- just went to pee behind a dumpster and very little stretching
