Sunday, March 4, 2012- Rock and Roll New Orleans Half Marathon
I had an awesome day! I finished in 2:12 and I'm so shocked! I really thought I was going to finish in 2:30. I kept running waiting for something to start hurting and it never did! So, I ran faster. My splits were:
10:30, 10:26, 10:16, 10:44, 10:15, 10:13, 10:08, 12:21 (potty break), 9:49, 9:29, 9:03, 8:43, 9:23, 0:50.
On mile 7 I took a bathroom break. While I was waiting for the potty, I took my long sleeve shirt off and rested a bit. It gave me the chance to regroup and decide that I was going to run faster from that point. I wasn't sure how much faster I would go, but I decided I would push myself a bit. At about mile 10 I decided I was still okay and to go faster, so I did. At mile 11 I thought the same thing, so I went faster. At mile 12 I could feel myself reaching my limit and slowed up a bit. After I hit mile 13 I just tried to push as hard as I could until the finish.
I still can't belive I finished in 2:12! So awesome. :)
