Comments: Should've traded out hat for earwarmer, but if Becky was there I wanted to keep it on so we could meet. Took off mittens before 1/2way mark. Glad I had fuelbelt on under jacket - drank a fair amt of water. Glad I had on YakTrax! Felt like I was running fairly strong but would have liked to keep up w/ some of the women passing me. Loved that the last mile or so was downhill/flat. Really tried to kick to the finish. What would you do differently?: Push myself harder. Did break 8:30 pace so I'm fairly happy with that.  Post race
Warm down: Stopped 10' after the finish line to chat w/ BTers. Richard, Chris and his kids, Sgt Vic were there too. And I did NOT lock my keys in the car!!! Kept checking my pocket for them the whole race :p What limited your ability to perform faster: Need to do more speedwork. Event comments: Lots more people out there than I expected considering the weather. I'm glad I went -- it warmed up a lot by the start of the race. Most people didn't stick around long cuz we were cooling down fast after the race. And they ran out of hot cocoa.... Christine and Richard both came in 2nd in their age groups! So glad I signed up for the series!! Last updated: 2007-10-16 12:00 AM

Got up @ 6:30; ate oatmeal; somehow it took me 2 hours to get out the door w/ plenty of clothing options, change of clothes for after, coffee for before and after to get warm, cooler for Costco - which came in real handy cuz I put everything I didn't want to freeze in there, including clothes -- worked well:) It was -7F in Evergreen as I drove out of town!
Got # and chip, used porto, walked and walked to try to get feeling in my toes. Looked for Becky. Had a Cliff Bar and Cliff Shot cuz I didn't eat enough before last weekend's race. Found Linda and Katy and Julia and Mark and Cathy and Christine. Changed out parka for light jacket and took off windpants a few minutes before the start.
