Felt great. i was pacing my friend who wanted to get around 1:45. Pacing went well and was always around 7:45- 8:05/mile.

Event comments:

In training for the Oceanside Half Ironman, I planned to do a moderate intensity long ride (41 miles, 2.5 Hours, 130 avg HR) the day before this half marathon. I wanted to get a feel of running on fatigued legs.

Next week I am going for a PR (under 1:41, sub 1:40 even better!), at the Surf City Half Marathon.

Performance:
Course: My favorite half marathon both the course and organization. I know this course well so I know to take it easy on the uphills and make up time on the downhills. Water stop spacing was great ~ every mile, so it was easy to speed up a little before a water station and then walk through the water station to keep the HR at a good level.
Keeping cool Good Drinking Just right
