I was doing great at mile 5. 39:16 or so which means I was running faster than 8 minute miles which was my goal. By mile 8 I was getting tired and started losing speed a little. By mile I was having a rough go of it. That's when Art passed me and I never saw him again. He passed me running along at a pretty good pace too :( By mile 11 I was in bad shape and it was a killer to run those last couple of miles. About 1/2 mile from the finish was a big hill that was pretty hard to climb.
The events of the night before certainly didn't help my run. Breaking up with my girlfriend and that was on my mind. Slept in my son's bed and didn't get as much sleep as I would have liked.
Although my time was still about 20 minutes faster than I'd ever run before in 2011.
What would you do differently?:

Put in a little more half marathon specific training.

I signed up for Ironman Frankfurt, next year July - and I am very excited about it. I originally planned to run my first Marathon in the middle of September, but am not sure if this is wise.

Steady is our walk. Ignoring the pain that is radiating from my feet, I continue to place one foot in front of the other. Again I wonder, “Why am I doing this?”
