I have noticed I run slower, maybe 15-30 seconds per mile slower, if talking. I do not talk when racing for that reason, waste of breath. Sorry about the sidetrack, you mentioned running a half, did you post a race report? Thanks, Simon.
... and insulted a spectator who told me and another runner to "run Forrest, run"..
Why is it sideways?
