Comments: This was not impressive from a performance standpoint, but that wasn't really the point. I just ran and tried to think about Christine's family and what a good person she was. I never met Christine, but from all accounts she was a gem of a person and will be very missed. It was a sunny, pretty evening and I just tried to enjoy and appreciate it. For the last .15 mile, I ran as hard as my short chunky legs could. I actually saw 8:56/mile on the Garmin at one point, which is flying for me. I found this last minute to be extremely unpleasant, but yet realized I was lucky to be able to be out there doing it. When the watch said 3.1 miles, I started walking and when I looked down at the sidewalk, there was a :) spray painted right below my feet. Cool. What would you do differently?: Not a thing. Post race
Warm down: Walked for 5 minutes or so and then headed home to be with the family. What limited your ability to perform faster: This is a big N/A for this one. Event comments: Rest in peace, Christine. Last updated: 2008-07-15 12:00 AM
