For shame February 11, 2008

It may have looked like I stopped running…I didn’t. Things just got hectic and I didn’t blog about it. But now, training for a half-marathon, I’ll be back at it again. It’s one of the things that keeps me motivated.
Saturday I raced. A five mile run. Twenty-nine seconds longer than it took me to run the same race last year which is disappointing but not surprising. Last year at this time I was training for a full marathon so my mileage was quite a bit higher. The time didn’t bother me as much as the placement. Last year I was 7th in my age group; this year I came in 21st.
For now I’m going to keep training for the half marathon in April and try to get a little faster. Aiming for 9 minute miles now for a couple of weeks.
