Ran my first race since the 1/2 marathon last September. I wasn't sure what to expect given that my mileage over the winter was pretty low (3-4 miles/day with 1 to 2 days off per week and a longish run on Sundays). Since class was done in mid-May I have been in the 45 mile/week range and just added in preliminary speed last week.
The race went pretty well... it was really fun and I ran relaxed the whole way. My splits were 6:19, 6:28 and 6:18. I was hoping to still be in shape to break 20:00 and especially considering the wind and the course I am very encouraged. I am excited about racing now this summer and fall!
5 miles today
47 miles this week
