Race: Atlanta 10 Mile (10 Miles) 01:00:27, Place overall: 10, Place in age division: 1
Total Distance
11.00

Splits 5:50, 5:49, 5:48 (downhill) 6:02, 6:11, 6:13, 6:26, 6:19 (uphill), 5:50, 5:55 (downhill again)

Probably an easier course than last year (perhaps 90 seconds according to course tool). I ran about 20 seconds faster, so the performance was probably slightly worse. However this was one of my best races last year, and this year I'm going off injury.

I started out in 4th then faded to 9th! in the third mile going downhill. My legs were already tired and I didn't want to attack. I passed two people and got passed by 3 the rest of the way. Finished pretty strong.

The pace felt easy at the start so I think I have good speed in my legs, I just need to work on getting stronger. Next big race will be Thanksgiving Half. 33 days.

AM 11.3

3.8 mile tempo in 23:16. Up in 15:09 (9:16, 5:53) (~6:15 pace, uphill) then along freedom trail in 8:07 (5:53 pace, rolling).  It was cold this morning, but not too cold. I was slightly slower than last week, but finished stronger (possible that the wind blowing the other direction accounts for this.)

Then I did 4 hill repeats on the Elementary Hill. It's about .14 miles and the course tool says the equivalent distance is .17. So literally about 225m, but the times should be comparable to my 275 meter repeats...

47.9, 47.0, 44.6, 43.8 On the last two I reminded myself that this was supposed to be a sprinting workout.

Paces: 5:42, :36, :19, :13

Adjusted 4:41, :36, :22, :18. Gotta get these paces sub 4.
