Light stretching
Run

  • 13.1 miles
  • 08m 09s  min/mile
Comments:

Strong start, maintained until mile 10. Body started to decline. I think low salt was contributor. Other main factor was not training beyond 10 miles, as a result could not remain pace.
What would you do differently?:

Better pre-race day "rest day", more salt tabs, & train beyond 10 miles (~at least 12)
Post race
Warm down:

Walk, Powerade, Icee, Muscle Milke, Banana slice, Water

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Training & Personal Prep.
