3.2 for 32 Girls slept in a little which meant we had to rush a bit. I also woke up sore all over. Didn't sleep great with some bad dreams also. I considered not bothering to run and just walk with the girls but loosened up and started to feel better as I got moving. I showed up at the start about 10 seconds before the moment of silence. Perfect timing.
Didn't push too much but tried to run hard. Had to slow a bit on the final mile. A little faster than last year. Think more speed work and a bit more stadiums would improve my speed a bit more making me happy with where I would be at. Still need more strength and endurance in my bike legs too.
Girls showed up at the start just as the strollers left too.

Kept going after I went through the banner. Caught up to the girls who were at the front of the stroller group.

Walk/run with the girls. A bit more crowded being at the front of the stroller group made it harder to run when the girls wanted to run but we found our spots. E was more interested in running this year but struggles to keep up with Nut. I ran/pushed them in the stroller a bit too.
Nut wanted to keep running after we finished. She told me her favorite sport is running <3 and her second favorite is riding her bike. I told her mine too!
Weather was perfect. 69 and sunny. Rain clouds rolled in just as we finished.
Ride in. Heavy pack. Time was really fast. Could tell my legs weren't as strong as they used to be though. Weather definitely helped though. Wore only bib shorts and 2 t-shirts.
Ride home. Stopped at the grocery store to fill up my pack. Very heavy pack. A slight HW which may have been what prompted the fast ride in this morning.
