AM- Today I decided to do my half marathon preparation run. The plan was to about 6 miles at half marathon goal pace, 6:05 average. My main concern in the half that I am running this Saturday is to keep the legs feeling loose and fresh. I set off and felt really good the first 3 miles. 17:52. Then I just tried to stay as relaxed as possible for the last 3. Legs got a little tight for the last little bit but overall a good pre race workout. Finished in 37;:31 for 6.1 miles, which I think I kept a pretty good pace throughout the run. Cooldown mile after. Now it is time to start tapering.

PM- Easy 3 miles out to the old church and back.

PM- Went and did an easy recovery run out to the buckskin hills. Legs felt pretty tight for most of it but loosend up once I got back and did some core work.

Later in the evening went to the team closing social. Good times!! Definitley gonna miss the team and racing. Did a 2.5 mile tempo after the social. Felt great and strong for the entire run. Hit 2 miles in about 12:05 and then just kinda floated for the last half mile

PM- Did my last hard effort workout today before the half marathon this weekend. Decided to just do the good old workout that consists of 2 rounds of 1 mile run in 5:45 then 20 box jumps, 25 db snatches, 500m row, 2 minute plank, and finish off with 20 burpees at the end of both rounds. It was pretty tough I will admit. This workout always hurts everytime that I do it. Especially doing the second mile when my entire core and upper body is burning from the snatches and plank. But a really good workout. Cooldown 2 miles afterward.

RACE DAY

Today was a great race. Woke up at 5:30, ate breakfast, and got mentally prepared for the race. Got to the mall where the buses were to pick us up. Got up to the starting line and did 1.5 warmup and dynamics. Was feeling good except for my blood sugar was high so I kinda felt like I had a headache. Gun went off and I got out towards the front. First mile was 5:36, a little fast. 2 mile split was 11:14. 3 mile 17:04. 10k split was roughly 36:35. I was feeling good until mile 10. That's when I was starting to hurt. I just kept trying to push and finished in 1:18:47!! PR by about 2 minutes. Super happy with the effort today!!! Now time for pizza.
