发帖数: 2912 | 1 There was a small 5k race 5 miles north to downtown State College today. I
found on the local club's website that several members will attend the race,
and do some longrun before and after the race in that area so I decided to
go.
The race started at 9am, and they planned to have a 6 mile run from 7:50.
However I missed the highway exit and wasted another 20 minutes turning back
... I never drove there. I've only run there several times, so I didn't know
how to get there from the highway at all.
Then I had to run alone before the race. I was running very easily before
the race. It's about 4 miles at 9:30 pace, and the heart rate was only in
mid 140s. By the time I returned to the starting line, it's less than 10
minutes to the start.
The race was held for the first time this year, so not everything is perfect
. There is no chip time (I even doubt whether there's someone recording the
gun time), no mile markers, and the course is hilly, with quite a few sharp
turns. I knew it's not a race that I can approach my PR soon after the start
. There are more than 300 runners in the local race, but it's more like a
leasure run or walk for most of them. After half miles, there's no one
closely ahead or behind me. I was at 7th place at that time, running alone,
and I thought that's my final place.
Somehow the guy in front of me kept slowing down and I became closer and
closer to him. Finally I caught up with him when there's 1k left. We had
some competition, but he was so strong in the final sprint that I failed to
beat him. We ran together later, and he told me he used to train for sprint
and hurdle events in high school. Anyway my final place is still the place I
was in half miles after the start, and my own timing shows I used 19:38 in
the race, with 179 average bpm, and 192 maximal bpm.
After the race, I finally got the chance to run with those local runners...
We went into the gameland next to the course, and ran another 9 miles. It's
a lot of fun running in the woods of the gameland. But I dare not to run
there myself because I will get lost for sure. For some part of our running
today, I can hardly tell there is a way. Sometimes it's just impossible to
run and even hard to hike. In those parts that we were able to run, we did
it at 8:00 something pace. And we had to walk (climb) and stop to figure out
which way to go several times. I thought I have a sense of direction, but I
have no idea about how we came back... It turned out to be 9:30 pace on
average, and my average bpm was 156 at this time.
It seems this is the first 5k race I had this year, though I can just forget
about the time. And I think I've logged 55 miles till now this week, which
will make me break 60mpw for the first time after an easy run tomorrow. I
lost quite a few pounds since my coming back last Sunday, and I feel good
about the mileage. | R*****s

发帖数: 4527 | 6 Nice long run after race. I had a recovery 5 mile in the morning. Try to
make a run tomorrow before the hurricane comes, but let's keep our finger
crossed.
