Notes
This was my 3rd LR half marathon in a row. Two weeks ago I was expecting a 2:10... then after last week went so well i thought... maybe a 2:05. Well, I did REALLY well. Ricky ran with me the entire way. it's the longest he's ever run in his life. He did two training runs for this... an 8 miler and a 6 miler. And HE was the one who was pushing ME in the end. We ran a pretty fast pace after the crowd cleared out after mile 1. I started having problems at about mile 3. I didn't feel comfortable. I could tell i was running faster than I had been. Then about mile 5 my foot went numb. We didn't walk until mile 10 and we had to walk 2 more times. My calf muscles kept getting tight. Once i had to stop and stretch them in mile 12. Ricky was a trooper. His feet were burning badly the entire time but he never complained. I am so proud of him. If he had not done this with me I would have walked a lot more and probably done about a 2:05.
