I really hope you don ' t give up on racing because of an experience like that ! A few weeks ago I did a crowded and narrow half marathon and I started in the 11 minmile because I got there a little late . I run 730 minmile . I ended up people dodging for a while then giving up because it was too hard keeping a good pace while also expending energy dodging people . I couldn ' t run the race i wanted to run , and that was a bit dissapointing . However , if you start in the right pace group and other conditions are right then it really is quite enjoyable <| sep |> Not yet , but I ' m totally choosing the grass starter . Which I seem to do s lot of , they ' re almost always the best designed . <| sep |> Claritin is really too expensive for myself . Is generic Claritin cheaper ? But it is still effective ?
