Yesterday I ran my first 10k. I'm happy that I ran the whole thing without stopping, but my finish time leaves much room for improvement.
For breakfast, I had a bowl of oatmeal with a chopped up apple, brown sugar, and apple pie spices. It was a delicious start to my day and I was far from hungry at the start of the race, but I almost made a deposit on the side of the road at mile 4. So no oatmeal next Sunday before the Governor's Cup. I'm thinking waffles. Hot, tasty waffles.
I'd love to post all the photos from the race but my Picasa album is full and I can't remember the password to my Flickr account. So until I delete all my wedding pictures from Picasa to free up some space or remember my stupid Flickr password, just check them out on Facebook.
If you're in the Lincoln are and you're not running in the Governor's Cup next Sunday, I hear they need volunteers. If you can help at packet pickup or as a course monitor please call the race director, Karen Bestial, at 402-476-1776.
Hey, congrats on not stopping! I find a good pre-race breakfast for me is a banana with some peanut butter. Granted: I hate bananas and peanut butter, but they seem to settle well so I choke them down for a race day.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll sandwich the peanut butter & sliced bananas between 2 waffles. That sounds fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOk, with the waffles...and maybe a little honey...that would be delicious!
