 Run
Comments: Purple corral. Good seeding for me. Held 7min pace pretty much the whole way. fast run mostly downhill. great crowds. Took a few waters to mostly dump on my head. no eating or drinking except a mouthful or two. felt good. Tried drop the hammer at mile 8. Felt like i did, but my splits don't really show it. I didn't have a watch or HR, so i just went by feel this time.  Post race
Warm down: walked straight to my car and got out of there before another line started! What limited your ability to perform faster: weight Event comments: Great race...fun running down Broad. But 40,000 runners is WAY too much for logistics. I doubt i will do this again. Last updated: 2012-05-01 12:00 AM

Pro 5755  | Subject: RE: Blue Cross Broad Street Run Good job maneuvering through the crowd! Just met up with someone from my tri club who ran with his girlfriend this morning and said it was impossibly crowded. Glad I stayed home. |

Broad Street Run
60F / 16C
Overcast
Overall Rank = 1337/38173
Age Group = M40-45
Age Group Rank = 110/1796
Left house at 5:45 for a 8:30 start and barely made it. What a cluster. Lines for parking, the train, and the 10 port-a-potties they had for 40,000 runners were ridiculous.
1 Ensure before i left. Had a coffee, banana, half bagel on the way in.
Still too heavy - weigh in at about 225#
None - no time. Got to my corral with 2 min to spare.
