  • Comments: Great early season race. Actual time = 1:46:23. Nice PR and I have not been able to train for this. I was really hoping for a PR Yesterday, I was able to drop down to the Half from the full Marathon. During the race, no calf pain whatsoever. My plan was to do an E pace training run, but I went a little faster than that. I didn't race this, since I have not done any speed work, nor have I had any quality runs for about a month. I hadn't run for 2 weeks leading up to this previous Wednesday.

  • Comments: The race would get a higher rating if I enjoyed running more. Cluster trying to get into parking lots; no gels on coarse despite the promise of them; immediately after the finish line there was a huge mash up of people with no where to go. Overall, they did about as well as anyone could do with thousands of people.
