This past weekend I ran in the Just a Short Run 1/2 marathon. I finished with a time around 2 hours, Run Keeper had me under but the "official" chip had me over...not that it matters I am not trying for PRs. It was about 44 degrees, not bad (last year it was 18 degrees that was cold) and when I finished the sweat froze on my shirt.
At mile 2 I wanted to quit, I just did not feel it. I decided to stay behind the 9:10 pace girl and try to take it easy. That seemed to work because I felt a lot better at mile 5 and that continued until mile 11 when the pace girl started pulling away.
Need a nice run tonight, maybe 10 miles but 8 is ok. This weekend I need to push it a little more, maybe 17 miles. I have to hit 20 next week or I am backing out of the Pittsburgh Full and going to the 1/2.
When I have pictures from the JASR 1/2 I will post.
