This morning I was up at 3:30 to head to the start line. I slept most of the way up there but I still didn't sleep much. At the start line I didn't do any warm-up because there were too many people and I couldn't see a good spot to do one. I started the race and just ran off of feel. These were my splits:
1-6:43
2- 6:48
3- 6:42
4- 6:41
5- 6:26
6- 6:24
7- 6:23
8- 6:34
9- 6:44
10- 6:48
11- 6:56
12- 7:26
13- 6:24
.1- 37
I took a Gu just before mile 6. I didn't really feel like taking it, but I was glad I did because at about 10 and a 1/2 my legs started to feel really heavy. Overall it was a good race. I was happy with my time, my fastest 1/2 in a while. My legs felt pretty good through out the race with a few aches here and there but my shin didn't bother me at all. After the race I jogged 2 miles, one with my mom while she finished, and one with Sasha. (Pegasus 80) |
