[QUOTE=yellowmoomba]What did he say about the race on Saturday ?? What hospital ?[QUOTE]
He said I would be fine...
William Beaumont hospital (TROY)

(One of the reasons I picked him was, he was affiliated w/Beaumont)
Nah, the guy is supposedly good, but has absolutely no personality
He's a dick...
And I always have to wait like an hour or more!?
(That freakin steams me like nothing else,
I will not go back there for that reason alone)

The Workout felt good, I needed it

and my DR's words ringing in my ear,...
"Take it easy, normal activities only"
Kept me from going over board

Race Day...

About 5-trillion people showed up to run this morning...
http://www.karmanos.org/detroitraceforthecure/album_2004/picture002.html
I was in there somewhere...

3.2mi Time today...
28:15!!!

The way the training was compressed into really just about two weeks,
I'm pretty happy to have broken 10min mile pace

On the other hand (whine )...
I didn't have a stopwatch, and the miles were not marked well at all...
The mile markers were on garbage cans on the side of the street...

When you are running in a pack of about a hundred people,
they are not easy to see... They should have been up on a street pole!
(Typical of something organized in the Shitty of Detroit)

I felt very good, had an open, comfortable stride (Not too aggressive)
and I think I could have broken 27:00 if I had known where the finish was,
and definitely, if I had ran the course once or twice...

I'm glad I ran practice in the heat, cause the city was at least 5-10 degrees
hotter than my runs out here in the burbs... (all that concrete)

All and all, a good time... I finish Happy, but not satisfied!

CU on the next journey! (Read Recap Article Below Pics!)

RACE RECAP

"RFTC-WEBSITE"

Sunshine, music, memories and hope were in the air when more than 30,000 gathered Saturday, June 5 in Midtown Detroit for the 13th Annual Komen Detroit Race for the Cure®, locally presented by the Karmanos Cancer Institute. Eighteen hundred breast cancer survivors were among the 24,000 registered participants (22% increase over 2003) amiably walking and running along Woodward, enjoying the bands, buoyed by cheerleaders, and sampling treats from Race sponsors, whose cash support was up 25% over last year.

Total revenue was at an all-time-high record at more than $1.2 million, enabling local breast cancer screening, education and special treatment program grants of $760,000 and a contribution of $250,300 to Komen’s breast cancer research program. Friends for the Cure® donations program continues year-round, with the 2005 incentive program running through July 15, 2005. Individuals and teams who collect donations are eligible for incentives courtesy of New Balance and Johnson & Johnson.
