I'm certain that contributed to your PF last year. Ok, so stop that!!!<br /><br />Next, I just can't even tell you how moved I am to read this race report ... running with your kids in a race like this has GOT to be one of the most fulfilling, and touching, events ever. I can only hope that one day, when Ryan gets older, he will by there by my side dragging my old butt in. <br /><br />Your race splits were very consistent, that's great! I know you aren't where you want to be running right now but it's early and you have lots of time to get that heel-strike fixed and running stronger :). Just ask Chris K about the heel striking - haha.<br /><br />Congratulations, girl....so happy for you!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-77745513221334164162011-05-31T22:43:34.349-04:002011-05-31T22:43:34.349-04:00such a fun race!

I imagine that has something to do with their mama. :) Love the pics, love your son coming back to run with you. My team does that...it's such a lift. Great point of view on the 25 year old friend's time. You may not have hit your goal this time, but you're doing things most people sit back and say "I could never..." about. <br /><br />As for my race, the bike leg was 15 miles. It was about a 17mph pace, a little slower maybe than I was hoping (perhaps not so realistically given my lack of time on the bike this year). Remember, I was on a road bike not a hybrid. We ran first, then biked, and I couldn't have been happier to be finished running! I think it'll be a while before my next race than uses the road bike, so hopefully that gives me lots of time to practice. Good luck with your brick!Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-55234189218362832132011-05-30T15:36:42.009-04:002011-05-30T15:36:42.009-04:00Great race and good average pace!
