LV Ragnar (Runner 2). Cold and very windy--in fact, it was snowing at the start. This was my 3rd LV Ragnar, 10th overall. First leg (9:55am) was 4.8 miles, and I averaged a 6:19 (downhill, of course). Last .8 was 6:08. Wore my Asics Gel racing flats. Second leg (5:55pm) was 4.7, uphill (570ft elevation gain), dead into a strong headwind. Not as fast as leg one, for sure, but I passed 41 runners (a number were going really slow the last mile). By the time I ran my third leg (4:25am), the wind had finally died down. It was a 7-mile leg, nothing to really write home about, but my calves were a bit sore from constant use of my racing flats. My 4th leg (7:32am and yes, I ran 4 legs as we had a runner that had to get home for her son's soccer game) wasn't long--just 3 miles--but my calves were burning. Took all I had to squeak out a 7:00 final mile. Had a great time. It's the same team I always run with, so we know each other pretty well. As far as my calf muscles go, I'm not unhappy. Up until about six months ago, I've worn Brooks Beasts for about seven years. I switched to the Adrenaline GTS, with a lower heel drop, and now race in minimalist shoes (including Altras on shorter races). They seem to be working great, and I'm getting more adjusted to them all the time.

AM - Turned out to be a nice day for a run--no wind, slightly overcast, about 41*. Only thing I didn't care for was the 300' climb from mile 2 to mile 4. It's not a lot, but it's steady, and you can feel it. Well, at least I can feel it. It was the slowest 10K for me this year, and I attribute that to either (a) It was just a week after racing 4 legs at Ragnar LV, (b) It was uphill for the middle miles, or (c) I'm getting older. Not really sure which I want it to be. Kinda hope it's (a), but I'm afraid it's (c). Thank heavens for age groups PM - 3 mile easy run with the running store group as they tried vendor-supplied Pearl Izumi's

A little cold this morning, but a beautiful day for a run. Sunny and no wind, and temps to keep you cool during the race. This was a charity race put on to raise funds for Hurricane Sandy victims, and the emphasis on the race was having fun. There were no AG awards, which was ok with me. Besides, I really don't like 5K's. I never train for them, and they hurt. At least, they hurt me if I try and run them really fast. But, they're good for you (so I keep telling myself). They had drawings at the end, but I managed to keep my streak alive of never winning anything at a race drawing. Bottom line--I had fun, and it was a great way to start Thanksgiving day. Now I can carbo-load the rest of the day.
