 Run
Comments: Thought I could PR off my marathon training - race was 3 weeks ago, and have been following the pfitz 5 week recovery. Still felt flat, just couldn't get the pace up.  Post race
Warm down: Waited around for door prizes, met some other runners that I can hopefully run with this winter. What limited your ability to perform faster: Still recovering from full - I would have thought 3 weeks would be more than enough... but strep+cold probably delayed it. Event comments: Great little "no frills" race, 15$ for timing and that's it. Last updated: 2012-10-20 12:00 AM

-8C / 18F
Overcast
Overall Rank = 8/131
Age Group = Males
Age Group Rank = 7/65
Race at 9am, up at 7 - one poptart and some coffee and fruit.
Wore zoot ultra, with tights, heavier socks, kinvara2 shoes, full toque and fleece gloves (forgot my race gloves/cap). 3 shirts (tri, long tech, short tech)
I've run in -20 and today felt like that - just a biting wind that froze you to the bone. They actually had 2 tower heaters for the runners to crowd around. Wind was brutally cold going out but at the back coming back in.
Soaked in the shower for 20+ mins warming up afterwards.
