Awesome sandbagging!
Paced it like a boss. Look at those splits. LOOK AT THEM! Before putting the hammer down in the last mile, ranged from 7:24 to 7:30.
Damn. Those are some nice looking splits. I'm jealous, I can't pace for the life of me. Nice job! 50 degrees, I'm jealous!
It's been a good few months.
I can't believe you're even acknowledging that. Thank you! lol
That final mile, as well as the fact that in general there was not as much late-race suffering as usual, suggest that I had a faster time in me if I was more aggressive.
Who can say. I have never had a faster last mile at any distance longer than the 10k, but I'll take finishing strong any day.
You were stuck with the "badluck before a race" bug for a while, there. All that training is finally paying off. I see more PRs in your future!
More deets. 4th AG. Small race, but gdmn fast old dudes. Weather was great. Temps in low 50's; steady drizzle the whole time, but never got hard enough to be distracting (but of course ended up soaked by the end). Course was pancake flat. However about 5 miles was unpaved. Various forms of dirt road, gravel, and bigger rocks. Most of it wasn't too bad, and didn't feel like it slowed me down too much, but certainly not ideal. Paced it like a boss. Look at those splits.

That final mile, as well as the fact that in general there was not as much late-race suffering as usual, suggest that I had a faster time in me if I was more aggressive. But I'll take the 2 minute PR for now. Completes a string of 4 PR's in 4 distances since 4/1. And all of them were massive. It's been a good few months.
A 2 minute PR is pretty great. Congrats.
10 miles in 1:19:43. Blah. It felt hard from the start, but I did have a roughly 30 second negative split. I was 4th for my age group at the halfway mark and 2nd at the finish. Fastest mile was my last. Maybe I should go out faster, but I hate blowing up. Top girl ran it in 1:05. It was a nice course and a nice race. It's the 37th year so it's a pretty well established race in the community hope everyone else's runs and races went well!

Fairly warm out today - even already this morning with the sun. Nice job.
You were able to run pretty fast after all that other nonsense. Congrats!
IK,R? If my math is right, isn't that like a 1:40ish HM?
Sounds familiar! Congrats on a nice race.

That's the only that makes me sad about missing today's Seattle Marathon. 50F at the start, 60ish at the finish.
6 miles on the TM done.
