Brooklyn Half Marathon checkin, results and analysis [View all]
I can't believe that out of some 30k entrants I'm the only DU'er so here goes...
Result - 1:31:2x (specificity would violate my personal anonymity policy).
Analysis - I had literally zero sleep so it was bound to be rough. I paced about 7 flat through Prospect Park - passing the pack there is like riding my motorcycle in rush hour on the LIRR! Came out at 6:59 pace, feeling good, rested even...lit it up down Ocean Parkway and set a PR. I wanted sub-1:30 but it wasn't that kind of day so I'll settle for my pretty fast time.
Any takers?
