Hi all!
Just ran the Lake Compounce Half Marathon on sunday. It was a good day for a racce as temps were in the 70's with overcast skies. Not a whole lot to report, I approached this as a training event as I have not done a great deal of training lately. I was aiming for a 7:15 pace. I started quick but not too fast and hit the first split at 7:00, just a tad fast. I ran at about this pace throughout the course slowing ever so slightly with each mile. By the last mile I clocked a 7:52. My lack of training is showing at the tail end of long events. I'm going to try to remedy that, but as we speak, I am developing a sore throat! My daughter just had a cold and sore throat so I believe I'm next!Anyways I finished at around 1:37 or so (the official results are not yet posted for a 7:26 average. Not bad but a little behind where I want to be. Oh well it gives me something to trian towards!
Post Script
The official time is 1:36:54
19th overall |
