PR! I was planning to pace the half marathon but decided to race the 10k instead. Got to Research Park and only had time to run amile with a bathroom stop in the bushes by Huntsman. lined up near the front because I didn't want to trip on all of the people on the narrow turns. We were off at 6:05 and kept I tried to keep my cool . Goal was to PR and break 42 min. Gun went and we were off! Pretty sure the first mIle felt like I was falling off the face of the earth. So steep and so fun! Watched stroller daddies pushing strollers full of three kids each minting a 6 mm. Wow Splits: 1- 6:05 ummmm?? Ok. 2- 6:15 still way toooo fast 3- 6:46 now slow... 4- 6:45 longest road ever and still slow 5- 6:50 just end this thing! 6- 7:26 please, end thus thing, just go! 7- 7;29 ok, over It hurt at the end and I just kept going. I was proud of my PR. Not the best race but I will take it. Ran back up to Rachel that was pacing 145 of the half. People were telling me I was going the wrong way. It was fun to watch all of the parade crazies. Great day. |
