Comments: wasn't expecting anything after a week of pigging out and not running. Very small race, smaller than I expected. About 35 total for full, half, and 5 k. At the Half marathon turn around, I realized I was in first place. Tried to just hold steady. At the full turn around, I had a 4 min lead. At 20, the second place guy was not in sight. at 23, I started to think that I may win. Held it steady and actually ran my fiorst ever negative split -after 55 marathons, and won! What would you do differently?: nothring Post race
Warm down: walked back to the hotel What limited your ability to perform faster: not training Event comments: Good smaller race. The town it was in had only ~1700 people. Tons of enthusiastic volunteers out to help, especially in the constant rain. Great family vacation trip. Wrangell itself is pretty small, but combining it with Denali, Kenai Fjords, etc, made it a great vacation. Last updated: 2014-06-15 12:00 AM
