Post-Race Analysis

Oh dear, here we go.

woke @ 4:30am
bus to Flushing, Main St by 5:50am
ridiculous line for the "free shuttle" to the race start
start race 11 mins late, no warm-up, no stretch. I did make sure to hit the porta-potty though!
In typical fashion, I went through the opening miles of the race at speed, to be specific, my split at the 2-mile mark was 12:10.
Through 12 miles, I really began to rig up, cruising through 13.1 in 1:27.4

Overall? good race, I got what I wanted out of it, and went under the 1:30 mark in my debut half-marathon, though I know there was plenty more speed to be brought to the table. Next time perhaps?
