Yeah, I brought home a ribbon! Splits: 6:48 6:54 6:56 6:59 7:03 6:51 1:26 I'm happy with my overall result, my goal was sub 43. Using the Race Predictor on this sight my time should have been 42:49 base on my 5K so I used that as a goal. I figured if I'm at least sub 43 I'm way happy. This race is a PR for me, that makes me happy too. I'm training for the Salt Lake Marathon so I did not back off my training too much this week, in fact, I only cut back three miles off of my typical week to give my legs a tiny break for the race. Oh, did I mention I'm way happy? I've had a lot of races end in disappointment, so being happy after a race is a great feeling. This hopefully validates that my overall marathon training in working.
