Good run, I think I pushed the right amount for this one. I maybe could have kept up with the first place guy but I thought he was doing the 6m race and just let him go. My knee started to bother me around mile 8 or 9 and is killing me now. When I get a chance to sit down tonight I am going to have to really ice it down.

I think I had the right idea for this race. I just wanted to run harder then a normal long training run but just push it enough to keep a steady pace. Maybe if I wanted to win I would have kept a better eye on the guy that got first. I was a fool and only looked at the preregistered list and there were only 4 total. That included Nicky and I.

Streaching and tons of water. Put on the Zensahs after Nicky got done, she had the keys to the car. I wish I put them on sooner.


Overall the race was good. I think as it gets bigger it will be better. With the number of different races I think the volunteers really didnt want to be around for the 12m run and it showed. Many of the stations were empty and there was almost no support for the last 5 or so miles. Many of the volunteers at intersections had left their stations which made some things confusing.
