        Thanks everyone, it feels great. I ran a 1:23 half over 2 years ago and since have been struggling with the longer distance. The long write up is in my log if anyones bored.

              Congrats on the Sub 3 Bash!  Nicely paced and a great finish!

                Thanks guys and good luck jaxn, funny it felt very similar to a long run (not that I run my long runs at that pace). In control and relaxed until the last few miles then focus and work.

                  That sounds how it should be - Great job!

                  Long dead ... But my stench lingers !

                   

                   

                    Got r done with a 2:56:06 at VCM today. Shitty weather but just kept pushing. More later.

                     

                    I'm unretired, yo.

                        Major fail at Ottawa Marathon - 3:09:00.0 (just because it's cool)

                         

                        I have now experienced the wall, I didn't last year.

                         

                        Was ~30 min for last 5K.


                        Why is it sideways?

                          I am going to run Bob Potts Marathon on May 25th. I am doing it for a BQ for 2014. Will likely pace for 2:55ish.

                           

                          Ran 2:56:40, enjoyed it and got my BQ.

                            Your running style is so fabulous. I wish I had one like yours.

                            5k - 20:56 (09/12), 7k - 28:40 (11/12), 10k trial - 43:08  (03/13), 42:05 (05/13), FM - 3:09:28 (05/13), HM - 1:28:20 (05/14), Failed 10K trial - 6:10/mi for 4mi (08/14), FM - 3:03 (09/14)

                              I did it!

                               

                              2:59:39 at Rock and Roll San Diego.

                               

                              This was my first time under 3 hours (not sure why the list says otherwise). Previous PR was 3:22.
