The Good, The Bad, The Run
Monday, March 8, 2010
Yesterday Rico and I did the E Murray Todd Half Marathon in Lincroft NJ. I was a beautiful day for a run. This was my second half marathon, and there was good and bad.
The Good: I finished without having to walk
The Bad: It still hurts to run that long
The Good: I was about 6 minutes faster than last time
The Bad: I am still really slow
The Good: 9:49 pace for first half
The Bad: 10:26 pace for second half
The Good: Not nearly as sore as I was last time
The Bad: 39th out of 41 in my division
The Good: Felt pretty good until mile 8
The Bad: Felt awful miles 9-11
The Good: Felt good for the finish
The Good/Bad: I get to try again April 18th (Anyone want to join?)
End Result - total time 2:12:42 - 10:08 Pace
