Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

| Long trail run. Up Steel Hollow to the forest road, past Ephraim's Grave, and down the Willow Creek trail for a nice loop. Was running late for a friend's wedding, so had to crank it up a notch the last few miles. Ave HR 149 | | Add Comment |

| Great Salt Lake Half Marathon. Time was 1:14:37. This time was a little disappointing, but technically it's my PR, because it's my first half marathon. However, I ran 1:12:30 for the first half of TOU last year, but that is unofficial, plus all downhill. The GSL course is challenging in that it's flat, booooring, and smelly, until the last couple miles, where it has some good uphills. There is potential to run somewhat fast here, but not today for me. The race went well for the first half, but then I had to stop and walk on Mile 8 because of a bad side stitch. Once I resolved my stomach issues, I was out of rhythm, plus legs were gone anyway. Last two miles were very hard. Mile splits/HR 10:26/175 -- 2-mile split, so 5:13 average 5:32/183 5:15/184 5:29/184 5:20/185 5:55/185 5:17/177 -- these two miles must be off 6:36/179 -- had to walk some 5:31/184 -- tried to regain pace 5:54/185 -- nope. starting to fall apart 6:08/185 -- really hurting. at least finally off that cursed causeway 6:26/184 -- last 1.1, so 5:51/mile pace | | Comments(2) |
