I put this on the schedule when I realized I couldn't do the Natucket Ironteam relay. I also convinced Dennis Mahoney and Michael Benadon to do the race as well. Its always good to do a race with friends. We carpooled in as well which made it even simpler. I didn't have a great run up to the race as I only averaged 5 hours of sleep for the past 7 days - the red eye on Wednesday didn't help either. More importantly yesterdays wallballs and burpees took a toll on my legs. They were sore and tired before we even started. Ok enough of the excuses. The plan was to try and run as close to 7 minute miles as possible. Good start but I fell off the mark in the 3rd and 4th and slipped from there. Clearly I need to do some intervals when I am fresh as all the 400 & 800's have been in the middle of wods.
After the race played pickup soccer with some Dedham families. Worn out for sure. Weighed in 166 - that is 7 pounds of water lost.
