Organized a Half-marathon for those who missed it, and one last push to do a PR. Only had 5 takers though, including myself. We did the same route as the half-marathon my unit organized back in November. It was raining, windy, and overcast….just the perfect conditions for a race….lol. We were supposed to do it on the 24th but due to OPTEMPO and mission requirements we had to do it today. We took off with a slight headwind, but soon it became a tailwind and I started making progress. I felt good the whole time, well rested- probably cuz the 5K I was scheduled to run got cancelled yesterday…so I just took the day off. Around mile 9 though I was day dreaming and had to get back on pace, probably thinking about going home…lol. My goal was just to beat my last attempt back in November even though it wasn’t going to be official, but real enough for me. My last time on this course was 1:48.?? and today I smoked it with a time of 1:37.02-AP 07:24! Oh yeah, I came in 1st……lol.
