Bison Stampede 5k - Run

 Run
Comments: Calf was very tight going into this... first 1/4 mile was awful, then it started loosening up a bit. But - by around the halfway mark, it turned into just a hard knot that a little painful. Slowed down, but just kept running through it. For all that, though, I still was only about 45 seconds off my best time. What would you do differently?: Not pull my calf playing softball a couple of nights ago!  Post race
Warm down: Walked around and got some water, then met Kim out on the course and ran the rest of the way in with her. What limited your ability to perform faster: Sore calf Event comments: Nice goody bag. Volunteers were good. Only thing to change -- there was one section of the course right before the end that was not very well marked, and while I saw enough runners ahead of me to know which way to go, I did see one girl take the wrong turn and lose a minute or so before she realized she needed to turn back.

Am I right that this was almost a minute per mile faster than last week's race? -Rob Wow - observant, aren't you?? I'm very impressed! And actually - you're right, it is.... last week my knee was kind of clicking in and out of place, and in general not being happy. Since then it's been feeling better, though, and this race was a little closer to my normal 5k pace. |

Master 1557 Maine | Subject: RE: Bison Stampede 5k "Knee was clicking in and out of place" - Ouch! Glad that it seems to be staying in place now. |

Same as always... bagel two hours before, gel 30 minutes before. A little stretching, but more hopping around trying to keep warm, since it was a little breezy out there today.
