I tell them all the work is done and regardless of how it has gone, the key thing is to relax and realize that the months of training are more important than the last two weeks, so relaxing and letting that training come to fruition is most important. As Coach Dellinger used to say, "the hay is in the barn!"

Tampa Run the Sequel

Sequels are never as good as the original. Thus is the same with this run.

I had been canvassing the Tampa Convention Center all day, trying to rid myself of the 1200 pamphlets I had brought down with me. Around 4:30, I decided to go out for my run - seeing a big black cloud in the distance and hoping I would have a repeat of Le Monsoon.

No such luck.

So not only was I exhausted from running around a conference for four days, but now it was supah!Hot and sunny outside. That and I had a 6pm dinner date with my clients. So I decided to rein it in early, and only did a little bit:

Runkeeper Result

Total Distance: 4.29 miles
Duration: 53:50 (yikes)
Avg. Pace: 12:32
Avg Speed: 4.79
Elevation: 178
Avg heart rate: 157

My immediate comments were "Blargh - Exhausted from Conference." Think that sums it up.
