Thoughts:

  • This was the first time in two weeks that I have run outside. It was refreshing!  The sidewalks were impassable while the roads were snowpacked and icy in places. Throughout the run, I had to slow my pace or walk for safety reasons.
  • I would have liked to finish with an overall pace closer to 9:55, but based upon the road conditions I am satisfied with my performance.
  • I need to bring more nutrition and hydration with me. I was in need of additional fluids by mile 14. My final push was more of a struggle than necessary because of my lack of preparedness. Learning as I go.
