Posted: 10/04/04 - 20:56 Post subject: First 10k, 61 for 61- Cancer Benefit
Woke up at 5:30 am drank some water went to sleep, woke up at 6:55 agian drank water, (got into the game), then after that dressed up in sweater, pants, hopped on the stationary bike a little to warm up and then stretch, then off to Krispy Creame to register. 20$ donate to the cancer fund, was fairly cold out plan was to run in a T shirt and shorts, ended up running in a Sweater on Short about 35 degree's out slight breeze.
Relized i forgot my gloves so we drove to Home Depot, got some glove.
Mile 1- 6:35, was a easy pace threw house and areas, passed a guy falling back
Mile 2-6:45 ran threw some side walks passed schools
Mile 3,6:46
mile 4 7:08- is where tragety happened got a side stitch that killed me forced me to stop a little
mile 5; 7:12- still recovering from it gave some power groans to get it out
mile 6- 6:23- gave it alot of effort to bad it didnt ma ke up for my body failure
.24- was a sprint dash average pace 5:45
Wanted a 43:25 for sure, ended up with 42:20, a good race, disappointing but cant evpect good, was on pace for sub 40:30 but bad thing happened, NEXT TIME sub 40:00!!!, I think i did fairly well considering it is my first 10k, my first race, except for the 800m and 1600m races, and only have been running consistant for ~3 weeks so not to bad, considering if i work hard what I should be able to run
Thanks for reading
