Halifax Hypothermic Half Marathon

Yesterday I ran the Halifax Hypo Half. It was a great day for the run although Point Pleasant Park was a complete sheet of ice. I'm going to attribute my slow time to that, and not to my lack of outdoor training. ;)

1 | 10:20
2 | 10:17
3 | 10:09
4 | 10:24
5 | 10:03
6 | 10:04
7 | 10:57
8 | 10:47
9 | 10:30
10 | 10:39
11 | 10:24
12 | 10:55
13 | 12:09 (icey hills at the end.. what can I say haha)
13.42 miles | 2:21:40 | 10:34min/mi

I'll be honest, I'm bummed with the time. I have been running a lot, albeit indoors on a treadmill, but my runs average 6-7 miles at 6.5-7.0mph pace. Oh well. The finisher's medal was pretty!

Next up is the Bluenose Half Marathon in May, which I want to run FAST. I'm done being slow. I want a sub-2 hour half, and I'll get it!
