Around 4 seconds faster than last year. New course, cool and rainy run. First 8 were awesome, last 5 kinda hurt.
My feet are a mess with blisters and at mile 9 they hurt along with my butt muscles. I need to find a solution quick for my blisters. I’ve tried all the standard recommend preventive measures and I wear good socks and shoes that fit.
Rumor has it the course was longer than 13.1. Both my garmin, my Nike+ GPS and Charlie’s Garmin were all off. Personally, I think it was off. I had a much better run than last year yet my time was almost identical.
In the end, I did it and that is all that matters.
Congratulations with the run! That is awesome!
You did it!
Congratulations!!!
Sometimes courses are long, but it just depends on how they measure them. I know how frustrating it can be, though, to feel like you ran so much better yet had a similar time. But you’re right – you finished and that’s all that matters. Plus, you ran faster (4 seconds is still faster!!) and you said you ran better. So that is improvement right there.
