This weekend was the
Tar Heel 10 Miler in Chapel Hill. My brother drove down from DC to run the race making it the third race we've run together since last October (first was
Marine Corps Marathon in October and second was
Krispy Kreme Challenge in February). Hopefully we'll be able to run some more races soon in the future.
I did a couple of things differently this race and they all worked out. I think they will become part of my racing plan.
- Stopped at Dunkin Donuts for coffee and munchkins as pre-race fuel
- Wore Vibram Five Fingers during the run (vs. normal running shoes)
- Didn't look at my watch during the race
- Gave a high five to Meb Keflezighi before crossing the start line
Below are some pictures from the race. The full set of pictures can be found
