Subject: RE: Country Music Marathon : Official Thread I did the 1/2 last year (PR of 2:12:ish )....doing the 1/2 again this year. Last year was my first season in TN after moving from Omaha, NE. 1 ) there are a whole hell of a lot more hills in Nashville than in Omaha... 2 ) there is a whole hell of a lot more humidity in Nashville than in Omaha... Even with that, i was still able to PR my 1/2 last year, and this year i hope to get close to the 2:00:00 mark. i am getting better at running the hills, and seem to be a bit faster at this point than i was last year (had a better finish time and pacing in the Preds 5k this season than last ). I'm also doing the Higdon 1/2 Intermediate plan, and have been doing pretty well with the runs and keeping on schedule. I have been swimming and biking as well, so usually working out 1-2 times a day 6 days a week. So i hope to be in much better shape this year. Good luck to you all and hope to see you out on the course |
