"Run Akkers Run" does "Run to the beat"


So yesterday, I did a half marathon - the Nike Run to the Beat. Considering my training of eating and drinking on cruises and Greece, I was very pleased with my time of 2h 12 mins:

My race split is as follows:
Mile 3 - 27 mins 41 secs
Mile 6 - 31 mins 18 secs
Mile 9 - 32 mins 18 secs
Mile 12 - 31 mins 17 secs

Judging by this I may have gone off a bit too fast at the beginning. Especially considering the 1st mile included going for a wee a good 90 seconds.

I had to walk for about 2 -3 mins on a steep part of a hill, but that doesn't seem to have hurt me too much.

Feeling a bit sore - but pleased I did the distance. Well done to Shikha too, who pretty much did exactly the same time as me.

So nothing in the diary now at all. I will give myself a couple of days recovery before deciding what to do next.
