“The plan was to have fun and do my best and it was great and I’m thankful for that,” Ricketts who was aiming to run under 18 minutes, told Island Sun Sports after his race. “I thank everyone who came out and supported the West End 5K run. It was hot, but it was good.”
Ricketts who was on the winning 2-Man relay team in the recent KPMG Tortola Torture and ran 17 miles, said he had no problems with recovery. “I did my best, didn’t hurt myself, so that was good,” he noted. “Julius (Farley) he set the pace and I’m thankful for that and I did it without injury. At the end, I was feeling a little cramp, but five minutes after that, I was good.”
