Freezing - freezing rain all morning leading up to the race. I eat a little bit to much before leaving my house. Usually I don't like eating anything if i can manage that. The race starts out going up a slight hill but narrow one way street. And i made the mistake of getting way in the back. I didn't reach the 1 mile mark till 8.45 but then the crowd started to open up. I was a little shocked at the first mile time. I guess if you want to get good at this forget the weight lifting so much and get the running in.. no matter what.. |
