You would think that a May 1st half marathon would be a nice pleasant weather run! NOT! When we woke up and let the dog out I was excited because it seemed very mild and no moisture of any sort. But that changed as we got ready to leave and on our way in. I was still excited thinking the storm would get itself out of the way for the race.
The actual starting lineup had a false sence of "fair weather" to it. But then we were fooled no longer....Rain, rain, more rain, some snow, maybe some hail/sleet stuff! It all blurred together to cause us all to be soaking wet!
I don't know the official time yet. My watch said 1:50:59. I think it is pretty close. It was hard to have this be the first time Tom has not ran a race that I ran. He has been such a great support, even while injured! He hobbled me to the start line. He cheered me on just past mile one! He gave me five at mile five. He handed Gatorade to people at mile 10 and was there to catch me with a warm blankie at the finish! Thanks Tom!
For future refrence, my split times.
(8:15)(8:22)(8:20)(8:28)(8:26)(8:19)(8:15)(8:23)(8:35)(8:39)(8:50)(8:39)(8:02) with the last .1 (7:36)
Just looked at the official results. I get to take one second off of what I thought it was. Actual time 1:50:58. 7th of 28 in my age and 145 of 663 runners (men and women). |
