Notes
First race since May 20th Sugarloaf Marathon! After a 3.5 month layoff from running this was my first attempt at racing. It has been difficult to get the mileage and speed back with only 25 mile weeks. Race went well all things considered. I was happy with AG Placement, though I was the only CN runner not to place!!! Top three in my AG were at 1:33... too fast for this almost 59'er to catch! Only about 15 seconds slower than when I ran this 2 years ago. Slightly new course, but in some ways tougher. Have to admit there was bilateral abbie pain at end of run though it did not bothe during the race. Too eGel and H2O at 4.5 and 9 miles and that seemed just right. Ran with Ricky for about the first 4 miles Saw Michelle most of the race and really drove to catch her at the end, but without out the endurance training for 4-5 months I missed her by about 15 seconds... Next time!!! Wanted to do 1:45 or better and can't complain about 1:40... but I saw 1:39:59 just as I reached the finish.... tough break! Heal up and speed up!
