It was clearly a case of my legs being restricted by the amounts and type of training I've been doing. I was hardly out of breath the entire time. Despite having not prepared at all for this kind of event, I was not pleased and a little embarrassed to have such a slow time. I think I've decided to transition out of "base" training, and start getting in more speed work. This was kind of an eye-opener for me.
2:11? Yeah, time to work on some speed dude. And I mean that in a nice way (as in, yeah, you look like and sound like you should be able to go a bit faster than that).
