Yesterday, I accomplished new PRs in both the 5K and 10K distances. The only problem is that I was running a half marathon.... Still managed to PR the half-marathon as well, but I surely did pay for that hot hot start. Oh, yes, yes I did.

Quads were thoroughly destroyed by the end. And today? Hhmm, well, today I'm getting up out of my chair by using my arms to hoist myself up. By the end of the day, I expect my triceps will be unhappy as well. But, I guess that will help take my mind off my quads....

Stats:

time: 2:05:53
place: 366/1393
division: 89/290
pace: 9:37/mile !!

Last year's time was 2:09:56 (9:55/mile)

Never in a million years would I have thought myself capable of averaging 9:37 per mile in a half marathon. Seriously. (OTOH, 2 years ago I didn't think myself capable of even *running* a half marathon...)
