So I think I had a pretty darn good race. Although I am super duper sore today (sunday), I usually am training for a full marathon when I race half but my longest run before this was 11 mile or so. I was extreamlly happy with my finish I held it together and it was a tough finish, rolling hills. For the kind of shape I am in I really could have not asked for anything more. Plus I was able to meet Marcie and saw some good old friends, one being Mr. Hooper in the flesh. Any way I had a really good, but though race. My legs still didn't feel that fresh and the middle part of the race was on dirt and uphill.
1-6:03 steep downhill start
2-6:15 still steep
3-6:57 flatens out worried I started to fast
4-7:48 I think this is when we started on the dirt trail
5-8:01 uphill dirt and tired
6-7:48 uphill dirt and still tired, turn around and the water stop was not there and I was goin to take a hammer gel grrrr
7-7:09- regrouping and calling on my wonderwomen strength
8-7:16 hammer gel
9-7:48 uphill
10-7:10 diggin deep
11-7:05 diggin even deeper
12-7:14 it's getting hilly and I want to cry
13-7:21 still some rollers and I am just glad there are no other women behid me
.1- 0:57 so glad to be finished and suprised at my time
