Decided to run this race a few days ago because, well, Snow Canyon is just a beautiful place to run and we needed to be in Richfield that afternoon anyway (so we were already close halfway there). :) I did end up getting a 32 second PR (which is always nice) so that was a bonus and I got to hang out with Brooke (who ran an EXCELLENT race) for a bit -- I just love her! To top it all off, Sophia nailed her 5K! Ry ran with her. Sans watch Ry told her to just find a hard pace that she thought she could hold for 3.1 miles. It must have been the perfect advice because she ended up beating her previous best by EXACTLY one minute! I have never run the course but they said it was constant rolling hills that made it hard to ever get in a groove which is why they were surprised when they came in at 24:39 which gave her 1st in her division (by a lot) and 11th out of 167 women. Not too shabby for a petite little 10 year old! It also gave Ry 3rd place so they both got some pretty nice medals. (I was pretty jealous! :) :) :)) As for my race, it's hard to analyze. I haven't felt strong in a race since the Park City Half in August. Directly after that race I began to wean myself off of two of my three asthma meds (because I was upset that I didn't qualify for the best life insurance which they attributed to my asthma meds and my low BMI -- which may not be the best reason to wean myself off but it was the first time someone has told me that I was not healthy enough and that bothered me). By SGM I was on half the dose of those two medications and this race was my first race completely off of them. In other words, I still take my inhaler, but I do not take the Advair or Singular anymore. Not sure what to think because ever since I began weaning myself off I have had GI and energy issues, yet, I am still PRing (not hugely, but I am definitely not getting slower). Thoughts? With that said, my eating habits haven't been the greatest either though AND I may be starting too fast. Really, I just want to know what I should concentrate on to regain that "I feel strong" feeling when I race. :) Splits: 6:59, 7:07, 6:59, 6:37, 6:26, 6:27, 6:51, 7:51 (ouch), 7:09, 7:33, 7:38, 7:39, 7:35, 6:14 pace/for .1 Hope everyone is enjoying November. :) :) :) Oh yeah, one more thing: If you are trying to find a place in St. George last minute on a race weekend don't be surprised if the only place you can obtain defines free continental breakfast as a mini white powdered donut and a piece of white Sara Lee bread!! I couldn't stop laughing. I'm pretty sure that the health benefits of laughing outweigh the detriments of the powdered white donut so it was a GREAT start to the day!! Good times! :) :) :)

| 5 miles: .5 wu, 4 @ 7:27, .5 cd * Interesting discussion about ibuprofen/NSAIDs use in pharmacotherapeutics class this morning. Although many research studies done on animals show that using ibuprofen can delay healing time in muscle and bone damage, human studies do not corroborate this finding. A recent meta-analysis (study that analyzes the most credible studies on the topic) indicates that taking ibuprofen does not reduce muscular and/or bone healing time in humans. Interesting. (I need to find the whole meta-analysis and read it.) |
