PVXC Root Beer Mile (1 Miles) 00:09:25, Place overall: 5 |

AM - 7 Lutheran/AC. Started off tight again, but it worked out quickly and I had a good run. (HyperSpeed2 423)
Root Beer Mile. 9:25
Noon - 1.25. At lunch today we had our 2nd (?) Annual Root Beer Mile - except last year we did egg nog around Christmas time, it was so much easier with the nog. This is the XC fundraiser for our Mr. PVHS kid (an area kid who has health or other problems that our whole school comes together to fundraiser for. We ended up raising right around $700 for Carter - very cool(the school is shooting for $10000 total! He race started off rough and I got out in about 5th after the first can of RB, but I struggled in the first 400 and a few kids passed me. I was already gut-hurt and the odds of repeating as champ seemed slim. The next laps were very similar and my stomach was overflowing. After burping I would feel much better - problem was that burping pushed the limits of puking. The last lap I barely got out before the winner came in. I did a huge burp on the backstretch and it was like popping a soda can - I didn't puke, but foam and and such came out, but I'm still claiming an iron gut! After the burp, I felt so much better and decided to kick for Jake. He looked back and saw me coming and really picked it up... I came up just short and finished 5th. It was a bit disappointing and I need to work on my carbonated racing skills. Next year all top 5 returners are back, so I'll really have to step up my game. (HyperSpeed2 424.25)
afternoon - 5 Dino Tracks. Trail run and life was good. Maybe a little bloated! (VertK 300) |
