May 25th-Sunday: MARATHON SUNDAY-(1mi. slow wu, 26.2mi. race-3:34:13-8:11 pace/mile) I felt good all the way up through 20mi. and then the back cramping started. I had to stop to walk and stretch, it was so bad. I chalk it up to dehydration and going out a bit too fast in the first 13-15mi. because of the crowd and competition pulling me along so well. The crowd was AMAZING!!! especially from 10-13mi. where I clicked off a couple low 7min. miles and a couple sub-7's. I've NEVER felt so nervous before a race and so excited, supported, and just totally pumped up during a race! EVER! I was really riding the wave of excitement! I'd definitely do it again, but with better preparation.
Here are my splits:
10k-48:16-7:46 pace
10mi.-1:16:18-7:37 pace
13.1mi.-1:39:00-7:33 pace
20mi.-2:33:05-7:39 pace
61:08-9:50 pace/mile over the last 10k, felt horrible, and it was damn slow compared to the rest of the race
40mi. for the week
456mi. for the year
Chasing PR's with the dedication of a monk; and appreciating every moment pursuing a DREAM while trying to stay injury-free, but at the same time, fully realizing the impracticality of it all happening the way I truly want it to.
