I really liked this course.  Other than the nasty headwind and having to go to the bathroom twice, I had a good day.  I was excited to run with my sister.  We stayed together until I had to make my first bathroom stop right after mile 4.  I made a second bathroom stop at mile 8.  The last 3 miles I started picking girls to pass.  That last girl I passed we were in a sprint to the finish and I barely beat her.  That was fun.  After the race, my sister and I compared our mile splits.  They were very close other than the two miles I stopped.  I need to get faster at stopping.  She finished 2 minutes ahead of me.

 

My splits were: 7:41, 7:31, 7:50, 7:50, 9:00 (bathroom stop), 7:35, 7:43, 9:48(2nd bathroom stop that took way too long), 7:35, 7:50, 8:02, 7:52, 7:55, and a 6:43 pace for the finish.

YEAH FOR THE SPRINT TO THE FINISH!!!! I love that!

Stupid bathroom breaks! But, when you gotta go, you gotta go! I am not sure how to make the body cooperate any faster!

Nicely done today. You should have run the marathon, you would have beat me, Scott, and Shayne!
