Good day for running today. I ran a mile warm-up with Mike, where we had to help find people. then the race: First mile, I was conscious of going out to fast, because that's what killed this race for me last year. I ended up racing Sus and Em the first mile. I felt pretty good so I stuck with them. Second mile, We had already passed a few groups, and I noticed a couple of guys that I thought were in my age group so I tried to stick with them as well. It then became a race between Me, Em, Sus, and the two guys from my age group. Third mile, I was running and the two guys started to pull away, it pulled me in front of Em, and Sus behind her. They did break away and I was pushing myself off of Em. Running up the hill I could see the Guys from my age group, so I ran for them ... I never made it to them, but I did get to the end a little easier. The kick I did not want to do fast, but Em came right back on me, so I pushed myself and finished just barely in front of her. Then Cool down was 6 miles, one with Mike, 5 by myself on the course. Then 5 more when I got home because I was worried about a pain in my achilles tendon, it warmed up so I was fine. |
