Also, I wanted to include my mile times from my Garmin but I had some issues uploading it so I will just manually type it out. I only checked it a few times during the race and just now went through each mile- I was pretty surprised with what I saw. Especially since I stopped at every water stop, took breaks when I ate my gels, and that I walked every time there was an uphill section. I could not believe how well today went.
Mile 1: 10:34
Mile 2: 10:28
Mile 3: 10:55
Mile 4: 11:09
Mile 5: 11:01
Mile 6: 12:06 (this includes my stopping/gel break)
Mile 7: 11:29
Mile 8: 11:51
Mile 9: 12:39 (another gel break)
Mile 10: 12:54 (this begins the walking segments)
Mile 11: 12:45
Mile 12: 12:58
Mile 13: 13:10
Plus 5 minutes and 24 second for .40 mile. I forgot to turn my watch off until after I took the photo at the end of the tunnel. Whoops.
My official times from the 3M site are 01:09:53 for the 10K split and 02:38:17 for the half! Yay!
My next goal is sub-2:30 which if there were no hills I totally think I would have been close to hitting today. No worries. Now I have something else to focus on in my training.
This is the post race picture I mention in the video. Don't you love my red face?
Congrats!! You are so giddy...I love it!! Makes me smile! The 3M swag bag is great. Totally jealous of your duct tape games. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, I was totally giddy! I still am. I feel so excited to start training again in a few weeks.
DeleteYay congrats!!!! I loved the video. You had me cracking up & I loved hearing the story. What an awesome goodie bag!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jess! I am glad I made you laugh. I probably could have talked about that race forever. I had so many thoughts running through my head afterwards. It was a great day!
DeleteCongrats on a great race! I think 2:30 is definitely in your future!! I've heard that the swag from 3M was good, thanks for sharing what was in it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It will be great to have a number to focus on in my next round of training.
DeleteYeah, the swag bag was pretty good. Definitely filled with more useful stuff than what I have gotten in the past :)
look at that medal! I love it! Great job! I look forward to following you! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love that medal! :)
