I did the Seek the Peak race on Sunday morning, and you know what? It was painful. Three days later, it still is. But! I almost didn't do it, so convinced was I that I would be slower than I was when I did the race two years ago. I hate competing against myself and losing. However, I cut my time by four minutes over 2006, completing the full race in 2 hrs 16 minutes (2:16:15)! I was slightly faster in all four stages, including a 54:03 time on the Grouse Grind itself. My cardiovascular system has been pretty conditioned from all the recent bike training, but my running legs were rather surprised by the endeavour. My quads are now paying the price.
