Week: 41 miles
Workout: 0.5 mile warm up, 4-mile race
I was a little late getting to the race. I had to run from the YMCA to the starting line and didn't get to warm up as much as I would have liked. Although, standing in the corral for 10 minutes was more than enough to warm me up. The humidity was ridiculous this morning. Because I got to the corral late, I got stuck in the middle of my corral. That led to a slower than expected first mile. My splits were 6:17, 5:48, 6:02, and 5:45. My goal was to run a 23:50. Even though I ran a 23:52, I was satisfied. If it wasn't for the slow first mile, I probably would have broken 23:50. I actually haven't run this fast in a 4-mile race since 2002!
