Sounds like the rest of your races for the year are all fun ones.

What you should be most proud of is that you knew you were undertrained, but still managed a decent finish time...and you did it on your own terms & enjoyed the race :-) That's not something that happens easily, so kudos to you!!

I have another soon. And possibly too soon after my last one. We'll see. I have zero expectations other than finish.<br /><br />Even if you never run another (I bet you do0< you are still running and have uite a list of upcoming races.

Faster than last month AND you enjoyed it!<br /><br />I'm especially happy that you kept running on the flat and downhill parts. <br />Nice that you kept pushing although you thought you're over 3 hours... mentally that must have been a tough one. How much do you feel did the cooler weather help you?<br /><br />You have plenty of fun races coming up to close the year, that's a great way to stay in shape.<br /><br />PLEASE don't write off Project Chicago 2025 yet...Long-term goals are the best!
