Queens Half Marathon

July 24, 2010 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 95 degrees. Hot and Humid

Comments:
Not a fun day to run. I was happy to be with Shannon and other RVRR folks, and reallllly wish that Lianne was there. Way too hot to be running but we gotta do what we gotta do. Ran the first 4-5 miles at around 9 min. pace and then started walking all of the water stations the rest of the way. My ankles began to get verrrry tired around mile 7. Mile 10 is when I got the floating feeling that I love so much about long runs. I was on cruise control and brought it in the rest of the way. Never planned to "race" this event. Just treated as a good long run for training purposes, and was not disappointed with the result... especially on a day like this.
