1.6-mile loop in 11:50, 1.4-mile loop in 10:01, 2 miles barefoot in the grass.
If you feel like wasting 10½ minutes of your life, there's a video of my race here. I'm wearing dark blue shorts and a light gray t-shirt.

i just wasted 10.5 minutes of my life and was called a loser by my wife. excellent run my man. you needed another 200 meters to catch that shirtless bastard in the lead.
ReplyDeletelooks like there was a nice crown turnout. were there any prizes for the winners or was it just pride and bragging rights at stake?
Got a ribbon. A blue one actually, for winning my age group.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Nice work buddy. What made you choose the steeplechase over a different race?
ReplyDeleteI watched the 1500 to see where I would've placed if I had run it last summer with my 5:31...haha. Definitely some fast people!
Well the steeplechase is badass, and fun. It's rare to get an chance to run it so I took advantage of the opportunity.
ReplyDeletehow fast do you think you could have done 3k without steeples?
ReplyDeleteChris--I think that 5:31 of yours was for a 1600, not a 1500, so your 1500 would be about a 5:08.
ReplyDeleteSteve--I have no idea what I could do for a flat 3k...maybe about a minute faster? I figure I'm just about in shape for a 10-flat 3200, which is 9:22.5 pace for 3000m.
I watched it so I could see you, but I had the volume turned down low so I could continue listening to my internet radio of choice. You look badass running and jumping to neo-soul and hip hop beats, don't you know (1:15 - 1:27).
ReplyDeleteWay to go Luke! You were actually clearing the jumps, not like those climbers. It got confusing when you started to lap people!
