Notes
Tom King Half Marathon
Was really worried about this one after how my hip would make it through the race yesterday, but after the increased ibuprofen intake and massage yesterday, I was feeling fine hip-wise throughout the race.
I knew that Scott would be running faster than I wanted to or could today, so I was hoping to come thorough in a second without hurting myself. Accidentally deleted the splits, but in the first 11 miles were all between 5:05 and 5:20. The last two miles started slowing down some, partly due to fatigue and partly due to shutting it down some so as to not kill myself. Coming into the stadium , I saw that I had a chance to go sub-69, so I picked it up some and ended up hitting 68:57 on a course that some people said was as much as 0.15 - 0.2 long.
Really good to know that I can still run a decent workout after two weeks of easy running and babying my hip. Ready to start training again!
