I ran the 10-miler and it went well after a rocky start. I went out too slow mainly because I paid too much attention to my heart rate monitor (weaving through the crowds didn't help either). The foot pod died again (at mile 4 something) and I was 50 seconds behind my goal at mile 5 (40:50), but then I decided to ignore my heart rate monitor and make my 1:20 goal.
- Splits were 16:15 (167 bpm), 8:26 (177), 16:07 (181), 7:53 (185), 7:52 (187), 7:36 (188), 7:35 (189), 7:33 (191)
- Ran 40:50 (175) first half and 38:35 (188) second
- second half was faster than the 5 mile turkey trot I ran in november (38:39) and last three splits were faster than my 10K pace (7:36 min/mi).
I felt great afterwards and I'm debating whether or not to run tomorrow morning.
