Notes
71F 100%H 71DP, The Vinings Downhill 5k. Katie Booth road down to the race with me. Neither of us did as well as last year. I think the new course is harder than the old one. In fact, this course doesn't really make me want to do it again. I got up at 0400, but had to stop at Michelle's to feed her critters. Got to the race site at 0650 for an 0800 start. Time does go by fast though, so it doesn't really seem like we had to wait for an hour and a half. It is always a brutal walk back. Had to walk over a mile, plus there is that steep hill to go up to where we parked. I was number 10360.
I lost a LOT of time at the start due to congestion. I'm sure I lost a good 30 seconds or more. Also, the first hill seemed a lot worse than last year.
I got a blister on each foot from wearing socks that were actually too thin. Gonna be interesting with another half marathon race tonight.
On my stats spreadsheet, the distance points here but the pace will point to the Area 13.1 Half Marathon run on this same date.
