I slept HARD last night and was confused what day it was when my alarm went off at 7:15am. No it’s not time to work, it’s time to DO WORK.
I didn’t move out the door as quickly as I hoped, but at 7:45am I was off and running. My plan was to knock out 17 miles and get to church albeit sweaty by 11:00am.
It was FOGGY, HUMID, and thick outside. I was sweaty immeadiately.
I felt really good on the run. I didn’t want to push too hard, but I also wanted to get to church. I was willing to cut the run slightly short if I need to, but my last 3 miles were REALLY strong. My last mile was my second fastest.
I managed to keep all of my splits under 12 minutes, with the exception of mile 10 which was 12:04. Average pace per mile was 11:16.
My “half marathon” time was 2:28ish. Overall time 3:11:52.
17 miles. I still haven’t fully wrapped my head around it. I feel like a million bucks. I can really start to envision 26.2!!
And I made it to church (only a few minutes late) after changing shirts and a spritz a febreeze. Now after a shower, I sit.
