Ran the Run 4 Kids - Pretty happy with the results, mostly happy I'm not sore this morning. I'm not sure what my splits are because I haven't had a chance to take them off my Garmin. They are pretty close to Dustin Ence's splits except for the last three mile.
I wanted to start the race off a little slower than I have the last couple races and control my pace a little. I've been getting to the end and finding myself dead and not able to maintain a reasonable pace the last couple miles. I think the strategy payed off, however I think I had a little too much left at the end because I noticed I was sub 5 for the last portion of the race (down hill).
I'm glad we're running another 10k this coming weekend just to get used to racing again, and running at faster speeds. I also think it will help with my overall strength as well. I would like to get back down to running 10K in the low 5min pace. |
