May 12, 2011: Run Club 10k, Lombard Street Revisited

Got to the lululemon Grant Ave run club late today due to the bad traffic. Everyone already took off, so I was on my own for the 10k run. The route was a revisit of the Lombard Street stairs again, which we did last month as part of the 10k of DOOM!
Thankfully the weather was beautiful. The run was not bad. I felt the side stitch creeping up on me so I slowed my pace and focused on my breathing, which managed to keep it from manifesting. I’ve been running these longer distances more often now and I think that my running form has changed. I think my stride is shorter because I am trying to ration my energy and am constantly trying to not over exert myself for fear of the dreaded side stitches. I don’t think this is good. :/
In other news, the 100th Bay to Breakers is this Sunday!
