Chris is done St Pats

Chris

St Pats 5 and 10 Km

Well St Pats is now over. We had a great day to race.

The brick class used this race as the run component of the brick. We earlier rode for 2 hours at Tri-It. This was a great way to warmup before the race.

Calgary was not in the deep freeze this weekend and everyone was happy. The course was quite good with a few icy sections but as long as you slowed down everything was fine. This was a new course for St Pats and it was a pleasant change. We started at Central Memorial High and then ran to the resevoir then alongside Glenmore and then back to the school. There were a few small hills in the course which made the race interesting to say the least. I think almost everyone enjoyed themselves and the biggest lesson the brick class learned was that nutrition plays a huge role in exercise and racing. We need calories to fuel our bodies.

Here is how everyone did:
Coach Todd 39:18
Ian 39:36
Kevin 42:06
Rob 42:38
Raf 43:42
Louise 45:08
Chris 46:00
Paul 48:42
Mary 49:28
Julie 57:28
Keith 1:14:00

In the 5 Km
Bill 22:54
Karen 29:57


Great job everyone and looking forward to the next race. Icebreaker April 3.
