Congratulations - excellent times on both races. <BR/><BR/>I would definitely like to participate next year, but probably in the 8K OR 5K. Not both! I would have had a hard time lining up in the starting line after just running an 8K.<BR/><BR/>I hear they have great swag?Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230997094889375925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20341995.post-3722089021303759602009-04-06T22:16:00.000-04:002009-04-06T22:16:00.000-04:00Pretty good runs!

You'll see that your long runs will get better.Arcanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11291146140722678535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20341995.post-20683474255101758622009-04-06T21:59:00.000-04:002009-04-06T21:59:00.000-04:00Nice runs!I don't think I was 100% in race shape e...Nice runs!<BR/><BR/>I don't think I was 100% in race shape either, but man did having a cold affect my breathing. The 60km gusts didn't help, either.<BR/><BR/>I ran 2 minutes slower than I did that course last summer, but I still consider it a good run.<BR/><BR/>I think I also learned a lesson about hills in this race -- in the flat parts of the course I was passing, in the hills I was trailing.mike whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12425527059185667388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20341995.post-51917451372741311352009-04-06T20:00:00.000-04:002009-04-06T20:00:00.000-04:00You've become the racing animal!
