This was a super fun race. I have been looking forward to running it since last year when my brother ran it and raved about how fun it was. It was great. I was really happy with my time. I think if I hadn't been hampered with the plantar fasciitis issue I could have trained more this past month and performed slightly better. However, my initial goal was just o finish the race. and secondarily I had hoped to do the race faster than a 12 min/mile pace. I was able to do that AP was 11:32/mile. I think there is plenty of room for improvement next year. I will keep up the trails as soon as the plantar fascia gets better. |
