A Run Through Redlands 5K
So I did another race this morning, A Run Through Redlands. Since our trip to the cabin didn't work out, I woke up at 5:22 AM, ate some breakfast, got dressed and headed out for Redlands. Traffic is great at 6:00 AM on a Sunday morning! Of course, I got there with plenty of time to spare as the 5K race was at 7:55 AM. So I watched the start of the 10K and Half-marathon races and got ready for mine. There were either more people running or a smaller start area as it took forever for the crowd to get moving. According to the official time, almost two minutes went by from the starting horn to when I actually passed the start line! Of course, not even 100 meters in, I stepped awkwardly in a pothole and rolled my ankle. I kept running and didn't have any pain until the third mile when I noticed I wasn't running very fast. My Nike+ running thing didn't do a good job of updating my miles so I was unsure of how much more I had to run. It got too warm in my long sleeve shirt and t-shirt so I need to remember that for the next race in May.
