Just returned home from my 2nd monthly <a href=”http://www.geocities.com/tidalbasinrace/” target=”_blank”>Tidal Basin 3k</a>. Finished in 11:04, which is two seconds slower than my time <a href=”../index.php?misc=search&subaction=showfull&id=1211392195&archive=&cnshow=news&ucat=2&start_from=” target=”_self”>last month</a>. As <a href=”../index.php?subaction=showfull&id=1213666163&archive=&start_from=&ucat=2&loc=main” target=”_self”>recent</a> <a href=”../index.php?subaction=showfull&id=1211643993&archive=&start_from=&ucat=2&loc=main” target=”_self”>results</a> have shown, I don’t think I’ve gotten any slower so I’m going to attribute the time due to my recent workload (raced two days ago, have done 19 miles in the past seven days as opposed to 12 leading up to last month’s race and only two in the four days before AND I did yesterday’s loosening run a ot faster than I was hoping to). Given all that, I woke up a fair bit sore this morning…<br/><br/>I think I started out a bit too fast; was passed by three guys pretty early and two at the end (caught one). I keep meaning to find myself some landmarks so I can gauge things better, but such a short race is so intense that I keep forgetting. Overall, I’m very happy that I was able to get some quality speed miles in during a lunch in the middle of the week… that’s cool stuff.<br/><br/>My schedule looks much clearer leading up to next month’s race so hopefully that’l be where I come in under 11 minutes.<br/><br/>I’m also looking to make a new “Races” section on the site. Won’t be anything special, but you’ll be able to click it to see only race recaps.<br/>
