Breakers to Bay 2013

I ran the Breakers to Bay 5 mile race on Saturday.  Thanks to the humidity, sun, the first two miles being uphill and, um, the many beers I consumed the night before, it wasn’t one of my finer events. 

My heart rate was through the roof the entire time and I ended up taking a few walk breaks just to get that and my breathing under control.  I ended up finishing in 50:30, not exactly slow, but I should have been able to knock out some faster miles had I properly prepared for this event.  Oh well, live and learn, I guess.  My recap isn’t too exciting, so head on over to my friend G’s blog for some in-depth analysis and pictures(!)

I’m easing myself back into a running routine, so I ended last week with a total of 11.5 miles @ 10:46.  My monthly total from April was 59.24 miles @ 10:40 and May was 31.86 @ 10:13.  So far for 2013, I have 277 miles.

My next race will be the Canal Run in July.  New this year is the half marathon option, so I’ll be doing that with the above-mentioned friend.  After that, it’s Fox Cities Marathon in September. I think, anyway.  I figure I’ll start training for the full and then if I crash and burn/chicken out I’ll drop down to the half.

Wow, what a boring post. I don’t even have any pictures for you. Next time, for sure.
