Since 4/4/13, I only ran four runs: a ten miler, a 3 miler, the 31 mile race last week and this half marathon race today (back injury 4/6/13).  I think the back injury is behind me.  

I ran the Cheshire Half Marathon today and the goal was to get the miles done at 7:59/mile pace.  I ran 13.19 miles at 8:17/mile average pace in 1:49:21.  My personal record for the distance is 1:46:54.  This is 02:27 off my Personal Record.  I can live with that.  It is eight seconds per mile off my best time. 

I needed to run this race today to redeem myself after my race of last week.  I needed to confirm my fitness level.

At the end of Mile 7, I am sixteen seconds ahead of pace.  Mile 8 through 13.19 sees me falling off my 7:59/mile pace by 4:19.  Thus I am off pace by 4:03 when all is said and done.  The goal today was to PR for the distance by ten seconds per mile. 

Hey I fell short.  But this result really is pretty decent!!

Marc Audet ran this race with me.  He saw me ahead of him coming down the Cheshire High School track and sprinted ahead of me.  I didn’t recognize him – otherwise I might have surged myself.  At any rate, I think he beat me by three seconds.  That’s what the results on the wall posting said.  I’ll have to check out the official results because I am not sure if that was based on Gun Time or Net Time.  I do know the Official Results will have 8:22/mile pace (versus 8:17/mile) as it will report 13.1 miles run versus 13.19 miles.  It’s all good.  Very difficult at times to run the tangents well given the amount of people on the course. 

I am looking forward to creating a training schedule and outlining upcoming races.  At this point, the only race I have scheduled is a Marathon in two weeks.  Oh – and the New York Marathon scheduled for 11/3/13 – I got in to that race!!!
