Notes
Charlotte Running Co. 13 Mile Trail Race, US Whitewater Center, Charlotte, NC Paid $5 for parking. Plenty of restrooms.
Temp @43-45degrees F at race time (0900hrs); @50ish at finish.
Rained about an inch the day before, stopping around 9pm.
Very Hilly course; majority of trails seemed to be uphill. Course very muddy, slippery, water puddles throughout course. Wore shorts, long sleeve running shirt and short sleeve on top, running hat. Running Shoes ASICS GT-2000 (#B). Ran with water bottle belt, needed for trail run. Started sweating around mile 2.
Trained 100% treadmill. Continue 2-3 and 4% Incline work on treadmill, I could tell a difference this made on running the aggressive terrain of the course.
Plan: increase speed on hill workouts and # of hill workouts /wk to strengthen legs
