Yesterday, I finished my first 1/2 marathon.
Besides the rain (on/off sprinkles) and some wind, I finished in 2hrs and 16mins.
Mile splits:
1 - 9:52 (ran this straight)
2 - 10:11 (the rest of the race I used the Galloway method - 3min run/1min walk)
3 - 10:24
4 - 10:00
5 - 10:36
6 - 10:16
7 - 10:48
8 - 10:34
9 - 10:05
10 - 10:35 - 1hr 43 min (3 min faster than Annapolis 10mile race in August)
11 - 10:56
12 - 10:31
13 - 10:57
13.1 - 2hr 16 min
At mile 10 my right knee started to hurt badly. I just kept telling myself "it is just 3min of running, then you can walk."
I do want to more races, but I need to do more 10mile, 1/2 marathon races, before increasing my distances. Need to not have the right knee hurt around mile 10.
-Enjoy!
