Run
Comments: I started out a bit too fast because I was just trying to stay in the huge pack and get moving to stay warm. After a mile I settled into my planned 10min/mile pace. At the start I was doubting the idea of this run because I knew that I wasn't at my peak, but slogged on. At the 10 mile mark, my calves and quads were getting sore (not used to the impact, of course). I slowed down a bit and took a few walk breaks but still finished strong. Start: 38F-W6-Dew37F-Hum97%-Clear Finish: 52F-NNW9-Dew42F-Hum69%-Clear What would you do differently?: Start out a bit slower. More training! But hey, this is a good inidcator of my fitness and motivation to stick to my training plan if I want to do RnR Arizona in January. Post race
Warm down: Walked 4 blocks to the car. What limited your ability to perform faster: Inconsistent running over the past two weeks. Head cold and sore throat. Extra body fat. Event comments: Great volunteers and excellent neighborhood support! Last updated: 2005-08-30 12:00 AM

Had my usual oatmeal breakfast. Ate a banana & drank a bottle of Gatorade on my way to the race.
Stretched and waited in the Cheryl & Co (cookieplace) near the start. MMMmm...cookies.
