Garmin has the race done in 1:49:28 with distance being 13.28 miles at 8:14/mile.  I ran faster pace than that though because I forgot to turn the watch off while going through the finish line and beyond…probably walked 30 seconds before shutting off and thus the last 0.28 miles calculated at 9:32 where all preceding splits in the 8s and 7s. 

Was going for 8s…A fair calculation would be to take the 13 miles and average the pace and that would be the pace of the half marathon. 

Official time has pace being 8:19/mile and done in 1:48:56.  Will go with official time because although it may be off and I ran it faster…the same holds true for all the participants…all the times are off. 

Cheshire Half Marathon at 8:30am:

Distance:          13.28 mi

Time:    1:49:28

Avg Pace:         8:14 min/mi

Elevation Gain: 303 ft

Calories:           1,779 C

Was going for 8 minute miles and put them together at 8:14/mile.  Oh well...okay I guess.  I forgot to turn the watch off after the race and there was about thirty seconds of walking after crossing the finish line...figure about 8:10-8:12/mile.  No matter.  The Race report which is not official yet states 8:19/mile.  Although Official report may report 8:19 mile and may be inaccurate, will go with Official report as it will be inaccurate for all participants.  And the course was a little long which also factors into discrepancy in Garmin and Race Report times (I ran 13.28 miles versus 13.1 miles which is Half Marathon distance).  Or maybe I just did not handle the tangents well.  At any rate, good race, decent result. 

 

Marathon scheduled for next week. Have been somewhat slacking on running...and learning about upper body training. Medicine balls are awesome...who knew? Probably a lot of people but not me.
