Race Info
13.1 miles
1:53:00 finish
8:30 pace
I had a pretty good time this Sunday. I planned on only running a relaxed 9:10-9:30 pace, but ended up getting sucked into a much faster 8:30 pace. I had some tightness in my shins for the first couple miles that kept me from feeling really relaxed, but after that I just stepped it out and took off. It was actually kind of hard trying to make myself slow down the pace. I just got caught up in the excitement of it and I think the fact that I was passing a lot of people during the second half (with a negative split) just kept my momentum going. The shirts and medals for this race were pretty nice and I have another bib to tac up on my wall at home. I'm bumping it up to a 20 miler next weekend at the Texas Stampede's Asics Texas Twenty. Leah and Kristen are doing this one and some of my buddies are also running the 10 miler in conjuction so it should be a good day (pending the weather).
