 Run
Comments: This was a great start to the year for me. I've been training, but not as hard as I'd like to...and I knew going into this race that I was comfortable running 2 miles but hadn't increased up to 3 yet this winter. My goal for today was to finish the race without wimping out and walking. I have to give MAJOR credit to the BT girls: Jogo, Sushi and Travljini...because they kept a great pace and kept up great conversation, making the run seem pretty darn easy. I finshed without walking and I felt pretty good the entire way. I started to develop a little bit of a side ache during the last mile, but I was able to control it with what most would call "extremely heavy breathing"...haha. It never got too bad. And I got my sweet Super 5K mug. I can't wait to drink a beer out of it tonight while watching the big game. What would you do differently?: I'm happy with my performance. Maybe push it a little harder right at the end...maybe I could have finished in under 33 minutes. But overall, it was a good first race of the year for me.  Post race
Warm down: Breakfast at Big Boy! And witness to an awesome car fire. What limited your ability to perform faster: Small side ache that I tried to control by breathing. Never got too bad though. Event comments: Running Fit always puts on great events...nice shirts, cool finishers mug. This is a fun event and I'll probably do it again next year. Profile Album Last updated: 2010-01-24 12:00 AM

I arrived early to avoid the big packet-pickup line...so I found I had almost an hour and a half to kill before the race. So I shopped at the Running fit store (bought a new headband, sweet) and made note of some tri-gear I might want to invest in later down the road. Andrea (Travljini) happened to see me as I was walking...thank God! After seeing her, Sushi and Jogo came up and I had a group to run with! It's so much more fun (and it's easier too I think) to run with people you know.
Stretched and tried not to freeze.
