Sunday's 10K Run

What an awesome morning we had going up to Carlsbad and getting to run on the actual course - thank you to everyone that came out and ran, the weather was stunning.

It certainly got everyone thinking about nutrition for the race, pacing strategy as well as how to clothe appropriately which could definitely play a big factor in the race.  Most importantly some of you were challenged mentally with this workout.  A big part of running and racing involves being mentally prepared, in my humble opinion training the mind is just as important as it is to train the body.

Below is an interesting article i found on this topic - please review as we will discuss it wednesday at the track.  I will ask for your key takeaways on the topic :)
