Comments:

I felt much more prepared for my second 5k than I did for my first. I even did a trail run with huge hills to help prepare me for the ones I'd heard about in this course. According to the timer at mile 2, I was about 20 minutes past the start (and I didn't cross the start line until about 40 seconds after the start). I was feeling strong and happy with my pacing. Unfortunately shortly after mile 2, I hit a bump in the road and took a tumble. Scraped up my hands, knee and elbow pretty bad. I got up to finish the race, but my nice pace was gone and I ended up walking some while I mentally checked myself back into the race. It hurt my time, but I still finished strong...blood trailing down my leg and all!
What would you do differently?:

Not fall!
