Captains log 05192013

It has been a few days of not much.  Getting used to my new shift at work and the schedule change is taking its toll.

Today I ran the 4th, and easiest, leg of the Colfax Marathon relay.  It is the full 26 mile course split up in 5 legs.  Mine happened to be 4 miles all down hill.

I did not sleep well at all last night.  I was excited and nervous and woke up at 0400 this morning after going to bed at midnight.  I was dragging a bit.  My goal was to run the whole 4 miles as it was all downhill but I did not have it.  I ran the first 9 minutes and then walked ran at a 4:1 ratio to conserve some energy.  I finished in 42:15 so ~ 10:34 mile I think.  By far the slowest of the team but thanks to their legs we came in as a team 298/699.  Our time beat the average by 7 minutes, so thanks to them, we were above average:P  great job PNDA BR'S.  I will be better next year!

Here is the Google map of my run today!
