I had my final tuneup on Saturday for the Providence Half Marathon. 8 miles at a 7:44pace. I felt great and really have had a handful of workouts during this training that made me feel ready.
I've already decided this is my last half marathon of 2012 and here are the targets:
1:42:51 - One second faster than my DC Half Marathon...I would like to think that I got faster in 2012, but I've been slowly getting slower. I'm confident I have this in my sights and it will be about not going out fast. I'm targetting running an 8min plus mile in mile 1 and then hopefully doing negative splits (this is actually what I did in my tuneup first mile was 8:18 and then each mile afterwards was lower ending at a 7:30 in mile 8). Confidence Level : 8.75
1:41:59 - something about getting into another minute lower digit is a goal. Confidence Level : 8.25
1:39:59 - This target was my reach goal for my first half and I'm going to keep it as my goal for this one. Confidence Level : 7.00
So next time I'm back on here will be a race report. Hope everyone's training is going well!
Good luck! Have a good race.
