Manchester Road Race




Ran the Manchester Road Race with Chevaughn. There were over 14,000 runners. It took us 3:30 before we could even take our first step, and six minutes before we crossed the staring line. Our net time was 59:45 for the 4.78 mile course. I was way overdressed, which was great for the cold damp weather, but bed once we started running. The second mile was all uphill, and my leg started bothering me -- same deal, it just felt heavy under the right knee.

But I made it. We only walked briefly toward the top of the hill, which helped my leg, and then we were back running.

My leg is pretty sore and stiff tonight, but no pain.
