Comments: Double shot race report: This was a business trip. The business was to get DH his BQ. The short of it is - he came DAMN close - and he's not upset he's flying high that he did so well and he knows he'll get it next time!! FYI this was his 5th marathon and his times are below (he needed a 3:15 to qualify) Hartford 4:16 Providence 3:58 Hartford 3:45 Vermont City 3:38 Philadelphia 3:23 NJ 3:16 my turn: So yeah I ran the half. It was uneventful for me. I've been training for IMMT through a very busy winter and have been feeling slow and behind in my training so I knew if could just hang on to being at or near my PR I'd be happy. My PR was 2:08 so I missed it by a minute, HOWEVER, the last 3 miles were in the wind and I gave it hell! I've started wearing my heart rate monitor per coach and you can see the last 3 miles I really kicked it up - if it weren't for the wind it would have shown on the clock too :) Duathlon in 2 weeks - guess I better start riding outside too!

Master 9705 Raleigh, NC area | Subject: RE: New Jersey Half Marathon Congratulations on the race! Wind can be a b*tch to run through! Under better conditions, you'd have PR'd for sure! |

| Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: New Jersey Half Marathon Being that close to your PR in windy conditions is something to be very happy about, IMO. Nice work out there! It's very cool to see DH's progression and decreasing marathon times. So close! Next time, next time, no doubt! |
