Another PR race for me... Yeah!! The last 5 weeks have resulted in 3 PR races, the St George Marathon, Save-a-Sister 10K, and the Snow Cyn half-marathon. I did this race with walk breaks to see if my time could improve and also to save myself so I can run the Mesquite Marathon in 2 weeks. I beat my last PR by almost 4 minutes! I'm a believer in walk breaks!! The weather was perfect and Snow Cyn was absolutely beautiful!!!
Splits:
Mile1 = 7:19 STEEP down hill... I had the breaks on!
Mile 2 = 7:15 Still STEEP!!!
Mile 3 = 7:56 Rolling hills, mostly down, first walk break
Mile 4 = 8:06 mile 4 thru 7 was an out and back, 1 walk break
Mile 5 = 8:15 1 walk break
Mile 6 = 7:34 no walk break (downhill)
Mile 7 = 8:03 1 walk break
Mile 8 = 7:44 no walk break
Mile 9 = 7:49 1 walk break
Mile 10 = 7:56 1 walk break
Mile 11 = 8:04 1 walk break
Mile 12 = 7:48 no walk break
Mile 13 = 7:30 no walk break
Miles 10 thru 12 was rolling hills. I didn't take a walk break if there was a lot of downhill during that mile. |
