Comments:

Really doing this as training for my HIM next month. Well this run was a little slower then my first half marathon the end of March but I felt a ton better. I felt strong and relaxed, when in March I pretty much didnt even want to finish. I did 2 water stops and grabbed a GU at mile 7... I think it helped too. Felt really comfortable to mile 11.. then I think I slowed down a little but picked up again for the last mile. I was figuring I was doing pretty even 8 minute miles- which would have been perfect- guessI was a little slower. It was really kind of fun running thorugh Lambeau Field. Would have liked to have been a bit faster but overall very happy with the way I felt. I still feel good :)
What would you do differently?:

not much... maybe picked up the pace a little while I felt good. Just wasnt sure how long the "feeling good" was going to last.

Your are a tough competitor, running a race in 39 degree weather. Hats off to you and all that ran the race. I can't even imagine that. Awesome time, too. Keep up that mental toughness and your going to crush your HIM race.

Have a great week!

Another kick-butt race. In fact, I am sure you will be doing a lot of butt kicking at the HIM.

Ahhhh....a Clif bar and mountain dew....the breakfast of champions!!  Nice AG placing and finish time.  Good lead-up to your HIM.  Have you checked out the Door County Triathlon?  Its on July 22 but it might be a little too far to drive.  It was my very first triathlon a couple summers ago.    http://www.doorcountytriathlon.com/
