Run
Comments: Went out hard to get out front and hoped to hold on. Legs were pretty sore from the first 11 miles, but made them work. Lungs were holding, but definitely fading toward the last stretch. Passed three folks within the first 0.5 miles and held on. Heard one person on my heels coming into the final stretch, but fought enough to hold him back. What would you do differently?: Not warm up as much or drain the legs as much prior to racing. Finished my 10 mile run with about 30 minutes before the 1 mile run and then another 30-40 minutes before the 5k. Too much waiting around did me in. Post race
Warm down: walked. Grabbed a banana, granola bar, orange juice, and walked. What limited your ability to perform faster: Dead legs. Was about 30 seconds off the 5k PR Event comments: Good race. Events ran 10-15 minutes behind because organizers wanted to thank everyone before the fun run and the 5k. Seemed a bit much. Overall, great race. Good turnout, and had lots of fun.
