HA!! Great story!!! Pacing is such a hard part for me…if i could only pace myself faster this whole thing would be over so much quicker!
i love you are drinking the cool aid!
I had a similar experience. I ran in the 400 meters race in one of my first track meets, finished and then headed up to the bleachers to sit down and recover. Started feeling a bit queezy and all of a sudden began seeing salad, potato chips, etc on the ground between my legs. For some reason the friends that were sitting around me scattered. Figure that one out. At least the coach was compassionate. I asked Coach Lassiter if I could get out of running the anchor leg of the mile relay later that afternoon because I had just hurled lunch and a few snacks up, and wasn’t feeling too well. He said, “Kidd, quit your complaining. No way you’re getting out of running it. In fact, you should run faster now that you’re lighter.”
