Exercise Type: Run
Comments:
With approval from coach, I ran a NERC race at a lake metropark (Penitentiary Glen)...which I had run in high school quite a bit. My high school team usually went/goes to these august races. Anyway, given I had not run a XC race in almost 2 years I was a bit anxious. Ran around 14 minutes for warmup..For the race itself I ran a 17:21, came in second overall and first in my age group. The winner ran a 16:58, but the course is quite slow...very hilly and almost all on trails. I cooled down 4 miles...a lot of my high school team was there, and my high school coach. Overall I was very happy given the course is always very slow...and my senior high school year when I ran an 18:59 on this course my season PR was 17:21 so hopefully, I've come a long way. Good day :)
