Bay 2 Breakers 2014

i ran the bay 2 breakers again this year.  i didn't run with anyone this year.  this year i ran by myself.  it doesn't really bother me since i always end up running at my own pace anyway.

i was a little scared this year b/c when i looked at my run calendar, i realized that i hadn't hit the pavement since january!  oops.  i knew it wasn't going to be so bad though b/c i've still been actively working out and getting little spurts on the treadmill here and there.  but the majority of my cardio has been coming from muay thai.  so, i knew my it bands were going to be the brunt of my pains.  which turned out wasn't so bad.

the weather was perfect.  not too hot not too cold, there were cool breezes from time to time which i definitely welcomed.  the one bad thing, which happens at almost every race, but more so with bay 2 breakers b/c this definitely brings out the runners without any running etiquette the walkers on the left.  please people WALKERS TO THE RIGHT!  trust me the person running behind you trying to figure out every which way to get around you will appreciate it.

so i crossed the finish line and i shocked myself.  7minutes faster that last year.  i was definitely happy.  and honestly not too sore, maybe i should have gone a little bit harder.  oh well.  next year!

here's my official time from last year.
