Run
Comments: Didn't take any water at station, was getting overheated half way thru and at mile 3, I was doggin' it. Thought about walking to get heart rate down but then thought about my father who died 2 years ago from cancer and how he had to suffer and then figured that I could keep on running and in all likelihood would not die from it. ;) What would you do differently?: Um, less coffee and waaaaaaay more speed training. I'm getting slower the longer I've run! Waaaaaaaaah! :( Post race
Warm down: son was starting to chatter when i got to the finish line so figured i'd forfeit my pie and any snacks to head off to the garden store to get some yard lights (yeah, the one store open today and we hit it up at 9am!) What limited your ability to perform faster: lack of training and overall fatigue level. Event comments: I think this race has grown HUGELY since doing the inaugural race 4 years ago and its almost too big for being competitive with crowds. But I'll likely do it again cuz what better way to make ready for a major chow down feast of 1,000s of calories! LOL Last updated: 2011-11-24 12:00 AM
