Running around LO, 5 laps around the dog park (about 1.6 miles each lap) plus a mile+ there and back. Total time: 1:33:40, getting a little nervous about being able to run less than 2 hours in the half in 5 weeks or so. Average time of 9:21 min/miles. Total Ascent: 1286 feet. I wonder what an average total ascent is in a half marathon? That would be useful information to post on those elevation maps, they never put that information.
Splits: 9:36, 9:08, 9:28, 9:17, 9:32, 9:22, 9:06, 9:12, 9:24, 9:24 Was feeling kind of sluggish today, plus felt like I was constantly running into the wind, which was rough. My shins were killing me for the first 3 miles or so, but then that let up. Shin splints? How do I remedy that?
