<p>I know it's not too extreme (other than the pain) but I ran the Santa Runs Tacoma 5k on Saturday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I run two 5ks a year that are on the same course.</p>
<p>One for St. Patrick's Day and the other is a Santa Run.</p>
<p>I only run two because it takes that long for the painful memory to recede.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Racing at the edge of nausea for 3.1 miles is a lot different then going long.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Managed a 21:36 which was good for a 3rd place age group finish (45-49)</p>
