Today: 13.1 miles
Week: 29 miles
Workout: Clockwise loop of Central Park beginning at E. Drive and 94th Street - Exit at 7th Ave (Times Square) - 42nd St - South on West Side Hwy to West Street.
Perfect weather for the race, unlike last year. I didn't train for this race. I can't even remember the last time I ran 10 miles. My goal was to run under 1:30 so that I would qualify for next year's race. I ended up with a 1:27:06, so I was pleased. Splits were: 7:15, 6:34, 6:34, 6:41, 6:34, 6:48, 6:37, 6:31, 6:25, 6:30, 6:35, 6:37, and 7:19 for the last 1.1 miles. Average pace was 6:39/mile.
The finish line announcer gave me a shout out. He said, "West Side Y" when I was approaching the finish line.
Thanks to Josh, Stu, Tom, and Megan who came out to support runners. And thanks to Darcy and Farbod for running with me in the park.
