Run
Comments: i pushed WAAAAY to hard at the beginning. second woman at the 1 mile mark. when i reached the road section, i looked at my hrm and it said 185! time to slow down. so, i tried to pace myself from there on out, but the damage was already done. i came in just a few seconds after the 3rd place finisher in my age group. it was still a good run...the first 5k where i ran the whole time, and not bad for my first trail run. What would you do differently?: PACE MYSELF! the woman who won the race overall came up to me after and said i had a good race, and that when i first took off she thought 'i'll never be able to catch her!' well, she did catch me, and then some!

Warm down: kids fun run! ran the 1k with ella. she did great. What limited your ability to perform faster: going TOO fast the first mile. Event comments: the sweet taste of ALMOST victory! i've never ever thought that i could get even 3rd place at an event...but this race, though small, made me realize that maybe i could eventually bring home a medal!
