Well it was a great 12.1 mile race. Note to self get to starting line earlier. First mile 7:25 got caught up in the crowd and had to weave in and out the first mile. Played catch up the rest of the race. Didn't want to try and make it up too fast so gradually started working the pace down. Knew i had to hit some low 6:30's at around mile 8 and 9 and try to hold it till the finish.
Mile 8 split 6:34
Mile 9 split 6:45 could not get going after the turn around, wind was stronger than i thought.
Mile 10 Split 6:35
Last 3.1 Avg 6:36
Ended up at 1:28:59 Officially.
6th AG 45-49
40 sec off PR was a positive race, my main goal was to finish feeling strong. Looking forward to spring races and Boston Training.
Next race Buffalo Wollow 6k Feb 6th.

Congratulations! Be sure to hit the bridge for uphill and downhill training before Boston.
ReplyDeleteGood warm up for Boston. I hope your training goes well. I'll be at the twenty mile marker cheering like mad. It's a tough part of the race.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys. Yes Kevin many miles on the bridge and a few trips to Conroe for some hills.
