have not done any serious swim or bike this year. about 15 years of running experience from military and triathlon, not including lifelong athletics.
half PR 1:31 (OTB)
full PR 3:42 (2014, was fit enough to run <3:30 but did not know how to fuel)
YTD run totals and averages
avg. 4/week for 30 miles
high - 6 for 50
low - 1 for 10 (moving)
long - 18
half marathon yesterday. overweight and have not raced in a while so didn't really know what to expect, which explains pacing, but it least it went in the right direction.
splits
48:xx
45:xx
1:34:xx
first 7 miles were pretty steady at an average of 7:23/mi. which felt easy (good conditions and adrenaline). 8 and 9 approx. 7:10 and not too bad. 10 and 11 at 7, tough be manageable. 12 and 13 at 6:30 which was everything I had left.
6 weeks out. will have a long run in low to mid 20's and plan to average 5.5 runs/week going forward, also should lose some weight...…… so, can I break 3:20?
