Race updates

Since I last posted I had the opportunity to participate in another half marathon, a 5K and a 10K.

The Rescue Run held annually at Palmer Park on New Years Day is a 5 and 10K charity event put on by the Search and Rescue team here in Colorado Springs. I had just enjoyed a wonderful visit with my family for Christmas out in New Hampshire which is sea level so I definitely felt the altitude adjustment when I raced. My bad eating habits over the holidays and not running for a couple weeks also certainly had an effect on my performance but I had a great time anyway. Due to the hilly course, it's not one to set a PR on anyway. It was certainly a good training run ran at tempo pace. I've posted a picture one of the photographers captured.
