Run Melbourne

Notable occurrences:
  • backflab
  • female toilet queue on course
  • unsanitary Gatorade (people plunge a paper cup into a bin full of the blue stuff and stir it with a large rod)
  • congestion
  • starting at the back gives you a good feeling from overtaking a lot of people but that gives a false sense of performance
  • why no sprinting?
For next time:
  • Start in a faster group
  • don't waste time with toilets
  • adopt a sense of urgency after 15 minutes
On a nicer point, I compared results with my friend who didn't sprint at the end. It seems like I overtook 293 people in 83 seconds.
