Notes
walked a good bit past the finish, so this was probably just under 3.15 on my Garmin
Crappy race. Was expecting to break 14:30. 14:30 got $500, 14:45 got $250 and 15:00 got $100.
1st mile=4:48. A little slower than I wanted but felt like I at least had 14:45 in the bag because this was the toughest mile.
2nd mile= 4:49. Frustrated with this one. Was trying to get the legs moving but they didn't want to.
3rd mile= 4:49ish pace. Seriously? Tried to pick it up here and it felt like I was sprinting but the pace was slow.
Was really surprised to see the time on the clock and I had to kick a little to ensure sub 15. Was alone the whole way and the roads were wet because it rained all morning (but not during the race). Really frustrated because I honestly thought I would have a shot at sub 14:20. But I guess I'm tired from the training and if you can turn your wheels over fast, you aren't ready for a marathon. The course had a ton of rhythm changes and short hills, which really isn't my forte. Oh well.
