Demi-Marathon International de Québec - Run10k

I started at 4:30/km or so to see if I had enough training to beat 45 min, for the first 5km it was ok. But after that my speed started to fade slowly.

From the 6th to the finish line I ran with a girl and I shouldn't have. She was a bit slower than the pace I wanted to keep and even if it was fun to have someone to run with I did hurt my overall time by 45 sec maybe.

At kilometer seven I saw my daughter who was volunteer at a aid station. I was nice to grab a cup of water from her :)

I finished with a 4:39 pace which is not bad but not where I wanted it to be. I guess that those three months without running during the winter hurts more than I thought they would. I need to stay away from injuries next winter ;)

Train more, my injury last winter did hurt me more than I expected. But I did a nice run with the training I had.

Walked around, drank water and chocolate milk :) Then cheered on people who were finishing


Not enough training, but I knew it from the start


I like this race, always on time and the course is flat which is always nice :)
