Notes
1st go at the gulf beach half.
solid run and performance at 7th overall and 1st in age group and 10 yr group. more importantly, at 1:26:49 i was just 20 seconds from beating my surftown half PR. i'm very pleased. 6:38 official pace.
out and back course. few rollers in the early and late miles. wind at out backs on the way out, so hit these miles hard. then battled on the way home.
felt solid the entire run. legs a little heavy in the lat miles, but didn't slow me down.
race finished in the sand the last 2 tenths. ugh. coach said it was like putting the breaks on. not good.
nice little race. not an extremely deep field. subway for food. and coach an I both won pint glasses and timex watches with HR for finishing first in our respective 10 yr groups.
