End of the Week Recap 3/28/10

Hail my running brothers and sisters!  I realize that I owe you a race recap, but I’m afraid that it will have to wait till tomorrow.  My stats for the week were:  33.57 miles total at an average pace of 8:05/mile, 17 minutes of conditioning, and a weight of 155.8.  The major run this week would be my half-marathon, of course.  I’ll give all the juicy details tomorrow, but here are some of the hard numbers.  Official finishing time:  1:42:00.7, 7:47/mile.  In my age group, I finished 11 out of 133;  In men overall, I finished 86 out of 830; and overall, I finished 110 out of 1838 finishers.  A not-so careful review of my PR’s will show that, yes, I did get another PR, and I also met my 2010 goal time for the half-marathon!  To say that I’m happy with these results would be an understatement, and I think that this race sets me up well going into my full marathon in one month.  Now all I  need to do is ice my legs to do some intervals this week!  No rest for those in training…or weary.  Later kids!

That is an awesome time! I think I need to sign up for another half before my full marathon in November. Great job!
