| total running time 116:17. I am really excited about this run. Originally the plan was to run 9:05 pace for the first 10 miles and then speed up. I discovered really early on that I was holding back just to keep it at 9 minute per mile pace and that is basically where I was for 10 miles and then I sped up. splits 9:03, 8:58, 9:01, 8:59, 9:02, 9:04, 8:55, 9:00, 8:59, 9:00, 8:55, 8:43, 8:38.
I have been doing leg crossovers and squats every day since the start of the year. 20 squats M-W-F and over these past 3 weeks the alternate day has gradually increased from 5 per day to 15 per day. I have also used my resistance bands at least twice a week. The work-out today makes me think I can run an 116 half marathon (8:51 pace) when I have actually tapered. This is the last 13 mile run until the race. I start my taper next week.
