Savin Rock Half Marathon

 

I suspect I ran at 8:37 pace per mile or better.  I forgot to turn the Garmin off.  Thus the 14th lap has a 14:52 mile pace split at 155 bpm for 417 feet.  The Garmin report states at 8:23 am I ran 13.08 miles at 8:40 pace per mile in 1:53:24 at 149 bpm AHR which is 0.86 MHR.  Thus HMP Lactate Threshold miles (82-91%MHR) at Midpoint intensity HR range.

The Official Report states I ran the race in 1:53:12. 

119 244 Patrick Kearney 08:23:04 10:16:16 01:53:12 48 M 13.1M

 

Although this is probably off as well, I’ll accept that as the case and this is 8:38 pace per mile. 

 

These are the abbreviated results for the Half Marathon I ran today in West Haven, CT.  I came in 119/304 (39%).  Very good!  And the time is acceptable for the course elevation.  Kevin Glick came in 131st place.  I do not know him.  He is a Shoreline Shark.  And he was a rabbit for me for the first 9.75 miles (although he did not know he was the rabbit).  I fell in  behind him early on and stayed with him for the first six miles of the race, as he had a good pace and same turnover as me.  Lot of hills, so I walked at times around miles 6-9 (some steep).  But I was always able to catch up to Kevin post walk.  At 9.75, he seemed to slow down a bit and so I passed him.  I beat him by 01:38!   There were also other key runners I paid attention to as a way to monitor my progress. 

This was a great race.  The hills were multiple, some steep, and at some of the hills, head winds to go along with them.  Also headwinds at the beach portion of the route.  Just a very interesting, challenging race! 

Margie was there to see me finish the race and afterward we talked.

Good job, I think you said that is right about your goal marathon pace? I ran a half at my goal pace only a few months before I ran the full, so that must be very encouraging. Nice race, you are picking up speed quickly.

Yeah, what Mark said.
