I did my first 10 miler race today. It was great location right in the lake. I had never been to the Leslie Spits before. Its really great location to especially to run, its green and by lake and flat.
I was hoping to a much better time especially given that I had run this distance before but I was not there today from start I was a bit slower. I took couple of blocks and a gel but it was too late.
Over all it was good run and good preparation for the upcoming #STWM half marathon. Now I am bit worried about the distance not sure why running in heavy rain and thunderstorm was not as bad as today. The Sun was out all along bit it was not too hot it was perfect temperature and felt good. My calf injury did not bother me much once I was warmed up it was all good. My ankle did feel weak after 12K and it did cost some time to ignore it; I have to ice my foot and rest today. Here is how the race looked.
Oh Garmin 610 GPS and heart rate were both on the spot accurate today. For a change.
