total time 3:22:41. at 11 miles I changed to lighter shoes. I was trying to focus on 9:25 apce for the first half and then 9 flat pace the second half. twice I accidently his the lap button so will have to add those splits. With the light shoes I was able to maintain a sub 9 min pace for quite a while with the heart rate right about 120. However, the last 3 - 4 miles my heart rate went up significantly and the last mile was a struggle. splits 9:32, 9:08 (not sure where that came from?), 9:34, 9:26, 9:29, 9:19, 9:24, 9:29, 9:24, 9:15(no increase in heart rate so I don't know what happened), 9:24, 9:00, 8:52, 8:56, 8:57, 8:54, 9:01, 8:55, 9:01, 9:02, 9:11, 9:27. the last mile was a struggle with increased effort just to get that pace. average pace 9:13 average heart rate 124.
had an energy Gu prior to the run and then at 50 minutes, 1 hour 40 minutes, and 2 hours 30 minutes. I tried something new. Gatorade chews. I had 2 of them at 2 hours 5 minutes, 2 at 2hours 55 minutes and 2 at 3 hours 10 minutes. the temperature warmed up significantly the last hour and I was probably over dressed. I drank a total of 12 oz water during the first 11 miles and a total of 18 oz gatorade during the second 11 miles. even doing all of this I lost 3.5 pounds during the run.
