As a rookie I find it funny that you guys are choked if you get 2nd or 3rd... when 99.9% of the population couldn't even imagine running that distance. Kudo's to all finishers!

All in all a painful read.<BR/><BR/>I'll say it here: You were the better racer on the day. I mistakenly thought that the fastest runner toeing the line would win but as you proved mental preparation, race planning, controlling the race based on your race plan, and adapting to changing circumstances in the race are all super important and when physical fitness is close these remaining factors often decide the outcome. <BR/><BR/>I guess I've been getting a little complacent. I won't be relying just on fitness at Chuckanut Gary - guaranteed.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406091734061349790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783092038038653693.post-64777999354607017952009-03-10T09:29:00.000-07:002009-03-10T09:29:00.000-07:00Great write up, felt like I was running it with yo...Great write up, felt like I was running it with you!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783092038038653693.post-53575642702559771492009-03-10T08:06:00.000-07:002009-03-10T08:06:00.000-07:00Ah!
