Comments: Champoeg 10K. I need to run a few more times on a flat course before I race on a flat course. According to my Garmin the course was a little long. Here is an interesting comparison of the splits from the Forest Grove and Champoeg races. The first set of numbers are March 2th and the second set are from January 5th:



My effort as measured by heart rate stays fairly constant but my times steadily slow down. I need to reverse that and have my times steadily get faster as the race unfolds.
