SMH Half Marathon Race Report

The SMH Half Marathon went off without a hitch. I set myself the race plan to go out a 5:30 pace for th efirst half and then bring it home harder and harder. I did the first 10km in 53min, 5:18 pace, which was quicker than I wanted, but brought it home with negative splits averaging a 5min pace from there.
This was my 3rd time running this event and I had achieved 113 minutes for both previous attempts. With my race plan, I was aiming for 115 minutes with a stretch target of 110 minutes.
I finished with 109:43 according to the official time.

At the finish I met up with a few online runnig friends from Dailymile. Great to meet them.

It was perfect weather for the third year running. Can't wait for next year.

First Setup

Here we are at the start of a "Blog". Whod'a thought it would happen to a fun run?

The idea is to use this to post results and see how things go?

You don't lose by trying these things.
