 Run
Comments: Might not have signed up had I known it was an offroad event! Track was full of ankle busting roots, ruts, rocks and more. Made for a cautious race on my part. I slowed and walked a bit at the two water stops then got back to it, maintained a reasonable pace throughout, but knew I'd not crack 30 minutes pretty early on. What would you do differently?: Nothing at all. Given I'd not run in a week and I was taking it easy on the trail, I couldn't have expected much more. Was scheduled for a run anyway, might as well do it was a couple hundred others.  Post race
Warm down: Got a bottle of water and Gatorade, sucked them both down. Went to the BR afterwards and walked back to the car. What limited your ability to perform faster: The course and me being a little out of condition after a couple weeks break. Event comments: Nice little local July 4th race...good way to start the holiday. Last updated: 2013-07-09 12:00 AM

Ate a piece of toast with PB and drank some water before driving to Craighead Forest Park for the event. Up at 7, on site by 7:30, can't get any easier.
Walked and jogged from my car to packet pick-up, then walked back to car to pin the bib on my shirt. Humid as heck, sweating before we even began.
