2013 Allstate Queens Half Marathon - 1:25:37/6:30

Chip Time: 1:25:37
Pace: 6:30
Rank: 25/2227
Age Grade: 69.7%

A bit of a letdown after last week's PR at the half (4 minute differential).  Nevertheless I needed to tackle some race miles for a long run.  However, from this race, it was bit of a struggle to handle 6:30s.  Perhaps it was a bit too soon to race after an all-out effort @ the NYC Half.  Quite frankly, I was a bit disappointed at the finish line; then I got over it a few minutes later because at the end of the day, you can't PR in every race and similarly good and bad races happen; embrace it.  The turns and the double looped course that resulted in weaving through a lot of walkers made it tough to maintain a nice pace and rhythm.  Boston in 20+ days....#2134
