Half Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

Maybe someday I'll have something noteworthy to post in this section. I have only completed three 5ks and a 5 miler; all at an average pace somewhere in the 9:00-9:30min/mile range

Painter's Half 2010 - 2:03:54 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Painter's Half Marathon - would like to keep an average pace of 9:00min/mile. 

Painter's Half - Went over my goal and finished in 2:03:54 :( It was my first half though.  I had a great time and learned what I need to work on.  

Salt Lake Half Marathon - would like to finish in under 2 hours. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Would like to complete a full marathon in the fall of 2010 and finally conquer the Herriman Hill...to be honest, there are several hills in Herriman I'd love to conquer, but that one for sure!

Personal:

I am a stay-at-home mother, married and have two young boys.

Total Distance
6.00

6.0 miles this smoggy afternoon.  I'm starting to feel much better from my car accident almost a week ago, so I'm happy to be running again!

Today I tried to incorporate some hills into my run...when oh when do they ever get easy?! Here are my splits:

AP: 9:08

Mile 1: 7:54; Mile 2: 8:48; Mile 3: 9:35; Mile 4: 9:22; Mile 5: 9:06, Mile 6: 10:22 (at this point I'm thinking, "why did I chose to live at the top of a hill that is a mile long?"

Hill get faster, but never easier!

Nice job getting out and getting the miles in and your splits are awesome!! I know the hill you live up and simply maintaining a JOG there is rough!

I am glad to hear you are feeling better! Car accidents are the worst. Make sure to take care of your neck. I was in two car accidents 3 weeks apart and I still suffer from the whiplash at times. It is amazing how bad such a minor thing can hurt!!!

Great miles, and the hills will get easier! Your hill to your house is not a fun one, but you will have to do it every day so soon it will be a piece of cake!
