Fun patriotic outfits to run the race with Mary. Beautiful overcast day. Love starting a race in the mountains. Got decent sleep (5hrs). Ready to run! Started off with mom, Mark and Mary. Nice to chit chat for a few miles:) Mom slowed up a bit at mile 2, sped up at about 3.5 and was on my own. Started music at mile 8 ish. Took gu at 6, and a chomp around 9. Drank at every stop. Felt a runners high around 6 that kept me going until 9 or 10. Then I had to just zone into my pace. Tried some of the imagery from 'Running Within' and repeated the word 'Zoom' in my head to keep in rhythm. Started to really feel my IT band stiffen up at around mile 10. Running past the parade spectators was not that motivating. They didn't even cheer. But seeing the finish line was! All in all a great day, a great run. A fantastic reminder of why I run:) Why don't I run halfs more often!?
