 Run
Comments: Female: 86/373 Was having a good run and keeping on pace. Heel was quite sore the entire way. Downhills were not pretty. Was able to power up most of the hills and felt very strong.. even passed a few on hills. Felt really strong on this run. last Km was fast.. looked at my watch and it said 1:52 something and thought, oh crap, I'm not going to beat my time.. so picked it up quite a bit! Wasn't overly tired following the race, legs feel ready to go again already. Heel is very sore though. What would you do differently?: Not go out so fast. Suffered in the second half.  Post race
Warm down: Stretch, ice heel. Coffee and hot shower. (very convienent to have a counter near the end of the shower for coffee!) Beer and lunch on a patio looking up into a clear, blue sky and the majestic rocky mountains. Frozen water bottle for my foot. What could be better! What limited your ability to perform faster: Stupid heel!!!!!!!!! (plantar faciitis.. so can not spell this, but I do know there are 2 i's in there someplace!) Event comments: Great race, beautiful, scenic course, not enough aid stations or mileage markers. Didn't stick around for food. Line up was way too long. Last updated: 2007-08-28 12:00 AM

Lethbridge, Alberta Bronze member | Subject: RE: Canmore Rocky Mountain Half Marathon Good run Trudi. Congratulations! Your time may have been the same but it sounds like a tougher course so it should count as an improvement.  (I think you're spelling pf right too.) |

Champion 5345 Carlsbad, California | Subject: RE: Canmore Rocky Mountain Half Marathon What a great place to run a race From what I remember of the area, bears are definitely not compatible with good running form. Good thing that you did not come across one. It sounds like a tough course and not easy to pace. (Especially with your heel bothering you) It does sound like you were well prepared for the, especially with a strong finish and a very quick recovery. Have to look this race up and add it to my "Todo" list |

Extreme Veteran 555 Land of living sighs | Subject: RE: Canmore Rocky Mountain Half Marathon Good report and better run. Despite the heel and the trail stuff. I especially like the shelf beside the shower! Brilliant. That 9 hours thing is still bad. Edit it would ya, how can I paper my shrine with this report if it is wrong? |
