Not a very good race today. I ran from home up to the start to warm up and timed it just right so I wasn't sitting around waiting for the start. I felt good and was figuring I could hit the usual 1:18 and maybe even go below for the first time in a few years. Not today. The first 3 miles are super fast and 3guys took off like a shot. I went out harder than last year and maybe I over did it but I didn't feel like I was pushing just letting the downhill take me. Hit the soccer park and knew the rest of the run was going to be tough as I was huffing pretty hard and was slowing fast. Had a few consistent miles but most of them were slower than the one before and my pace was all over the place. Didn't even have the juice to try and catch the guy at the end. Tough, tough run. Hopefully I can get a couple more good weeks of training before Ogden. I really don't want to do a full marathon feeling like I did today. |
