struggled w these, feels like end of season. also slammed my shin and glute hard against metal bleachers when i jumped on them to do a warmup stretch, and shoes slid off. hands didnt thaw out until end of bus ride home, even tho I wore alpaca gloves covered w windblock mitts. the AP weather bar got it right, 33 degrees, feels like 24.
Frostbite Series 2M in Forest Park. Terrible time, 13:56, barely broke 7 min/mile pace. Strides in park afterwards felt much better. Most people were about 15 sec per mile off their pace from last race...but I was almost 30 seconds off.
Felt very tight...didn't help that I kept feeling chilled even when warmly dressed inside the visitors center and it was raining pretty hard during the race. Probably paying the cumulative toll of holiday feasts and sleep disruption too. Plenty of warmup, maybe too much? Ah well, pretty sure its just an anomaly, will bounce back.
