Run
Comments: I went out hard, but no as hard as last year. My first mile was 5:38 (6 seconds slower than last year)... Mile two surprised me because I ran it in 5:36 (last year I ran mile 2 in 6:15)... Mile 3 was good too... 5:52... and then I faded on mile 4 with a 6:06. Overall, I beat last years time by 31 seconds. What would you do differently?: Try to push harder on mile 4... I was somewhat disappointed with not getting under 6 minutes on the last mile. Post race
Warm down: Changed into dry, warm clothing... FREE BEER! What limited your ability to perform faster: The cold... maybe. I ran well... Event comments: I'm really happy with my race... I also had a personal best in the 5K (unofficially): 17:38 (based on my first 3 miles plus the 32 seconds it took me to do the .1 in my last 5K in Oct...) Last updated: 2007-11-12 12:00 AM

Got up early... it was cold... took a shower, had some toast and a banana. Stopped at Einsteins Bagels and grabbed some coffee. Registered. Walked to the finish to drop off my gym bag so that I would have warm clothes to change into after the race. Jogged back to the school... went potty. I could hear the PA announcer getting everyone ready to start. I raced to the start and got as close to the front as I could.
