CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rock Star Ironman!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats David!

I have been out of pocket lately. It seems like I missed some good things. I am doing a half this weekend. I would like to go sub 2 but not sure how that will go. My pace has been under 10 min/mile the last few times I ran. I did the calculator and it says i need to be about 9 min pace to break 2 I hope I am not by myself and can get in a pace group if they have those.This will only be my first Half besides the run in the 70.3 so should be faster than Augusta.

Don't rely on pace groups Mike, once I joined a 1:40 pacer for a half and he seemed very slow, after a few minutes someone asked what his plan was and it turned out he thought he was the 1:55 pacer and quickly raced off trying to make up time! Another time the pacer suddenly had to make a toilet stop and we never saw her again!

I personally think you had a bad pacer.  Not all pace groups are awful!

Mike, you need to have trained to run at a 9:00 pace.  You can't expect that the pace group will allow you to pull that off.    They can be really good at keeping you honest and usually pace to terrain (at least the good ones do).

First Half in the books! 2:03:08. Not the sub 2 due to pain in my Achilles tendon. Race report is done.

I hope everyone is having a good Veterans Day weekend.

I haven't but probably need to get a few more this winter

Nice job Mike, but I don't see the RR in your race logs.

David,

sub 1:40 for the HM is also one of my goals.  

RR should be here

Just purchased my new plan, should keep me occupied for the next 10 weeks!
