Comments: PR for this race...I took 6 minutes off of last years time. Started struggling in mile 6. I didn't drink water during instead had with me a bottle of Cytomax...that was a mistake...should have just kept water in the bottle. My achilles was bothering before & is sore, need to take a couple of days off. What would you do differently?: Take an additional day off, I could feel tired legs in mile 5. Keep water only in the bottle. This was still a great run in preparation for St Anthony's, I've improved my pace time and overall, improved on my particular weakness, the run. Got to keep it going... ![]() Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: Achilles is sore General fatigue from the triathlon training schedule Event comments: The Gate River Run is a fantastic event for Jacksonville. It is the national 15k championshhip but beyond that the race has grown to 9000 runners (Not all reported their times)and is Jacksonville's biggest spectator event watched by approximately 100,000 people. One of the more enjoyable annual events in Jacksonville, This is the 4th year I've run in this race on this beautiful course. Last updated: 2005-03-12 12:00 AM
