The Recap You’ve All Been Waiting For

Go St Louis Half Marathon!

 

So I decided not to race this but just run comfortably. I set a goal of 1 hour 45 minutes. I actually set it thinking I was going to race and thought it was a pretty high goal and that it would be hard for me to do.

….let’s just say I hit the goal and I didn’t even race it!!!!

Here are my splits:

mileage	time
mile 1	7:56
mile 2	8:02
mile 3	8:04
mile 4	7:54
mile 5	7:58
mile 6	8:01
mile 7	7:56
mile 8	8:02
mile 9	7:49
mile 10	7:57
mile 11	7:46
mile 12	8:26
mile 13	8:10
.21	1.36

Average pace: 8:00/mi

This course was EXTREMELY hilly. I train on hills everyday but not one’s that last a mile long. The last two miles my body just died on me. It was tired haha and didn’t want to do work anymore.

I wonder what I would’ve ran if I actually raced.

Picture Time:

I will have to post official pictures once they are up, but for now these are the pictures Alex took of me.

I must say, my leg muscles looked pretty good in those first few pictures 🙂 I can’t wait to see what the official pictures look like. Hopefully they took some of me actually running.

there you have it!!
