Run
Comments: Overall a fun event. I went out to hard in the beggining and got a side stich toward the end. I was really sucking air by the end of the race. I caught up to one of my friends at about the 2 mile mark and ran with him the rest of the race. It was nice because I haven't seen him in a couple of months. I was surprised to see him. I knew he was probably running but I figured I wouldn't see him due to the number of people that ran this race. My goal for this race was to beat my 5k time that I did in my 1st triathlon. I know, not a very lofty goal considering I swam and biked before the last one but none the less it was my goal. I didn't beat my time but I still feel I accomplished my goal because of the mass start. I spent the 1st 1/2 walking and dodging people. My 1/2 mile time was about 7 mins. What would you do differently?: Start more towards the front of the pack next time. There were probably close to 5000 people at the start of this race. I walked the 1st 1/2 mile as there was no room to run. Post race
Warm down: Walked around and looked for people I knew. What limited your ability to perform faster: People in the way at the beginning of the race. Event comments: It was a fun event and I would definately run it again. Last updated: 2007-05-17 12:00 AM
