2013 NYC Half Marathon - 1:21:34/6:14


Chip Time: 1:21:34 (PR)
Pace: 6:14
Rank: 194/14500
Age Grade: 72.73%
5K:   19:16
10K: 38:37
15K: 57:56
20K: 1:17:20


2nd PR of the year and hopefully will keep racing hard throughout.  I felt great throughout the race just trailing several teammates from a fewyards behind.  Quite frankly, I really couldn't have done it without them.  Their unbelievable support through every mile gave me an extra gear.  The goal was to keep it steady yet a bit aggressive in the CP loop, let the crowd feed into my mantra on miles 7-8 (major headwind) wound up with a 15K 3 seconds off from my PR in 2012 and give it my all I to the finish. Overall, very ecstatic with this result as I finally subbed 1:22 after several attempts.  Perhaps, a 1:20 is possible now; now must focus on Boston; haven't done a long run yet and perhaps find a local race this week to tackle those miles!
