Comments:

Started out well. Walked a couple of times but not too much. Actually ran 5:00 faster than I did last Sunday in my triathlon! Bret got me at the last 50 yards and made me sprint which I didn't think I had it in me, but I guess did. So, I ended up passing three other gals. Glad I did that. Looking at the pictures, I actually looked good, too. Felt like puking at the end, but that's what it's all about, right?
What would you do differently?:

Run the whole thing. And remember to take my Endurolytes!

Warm down:

Really wanted to do some stretching because right after this I went to ride 17.5 miles with Christa and I didn't get enough stretching in. I ended up being pretty tight.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

I just need to run more and get myself stronger and faster. Just going to take time and training.
