I finished the Dadaepo race. I was disappointed with my finish time at first but now I have decided that I did my best. My finish was 58:20. I was really glad that I finished under 1 hour. There were a number of factors that I think hindered my performance. Also I didn't practice enough on the mental aspects of the race. I really gave up at the end of the race. I also was really distracted for the last 4 kilometers and not in a good way. I really had to go to the bathroom and there was nothing in site. I was looking for a bush but there was nothing. I was thinking about going in my pants; since it was raining and I was already soaked; but I just couldn't do it. By the end I was in tears and disappointed in the way that I managed my time.
Alas, I finished! I have a time now that I can beat. I can train hard to become faster and stronger. I need to really practice the mental game ~ I can't give up so easily.
