Run (Recovery) 22:04 [3] 2.73 mi (8:05 / mi) +24m 7:52 / mi
shoes: Under Armour HOVR Sonic 2
Easy run to recover from yesterday's failure. Significantly more taxing than I was expecting - which is to say it was just barely taxing.

Almost don't even want to put down race for this. Ran the March Madness Half Marathon course in Cary. Was aiming for about 6:30 pace. I hit that consistently in training and know I could hit that in a race.
For the actual solo race I was at 6:33 pace by mile 6, but then something just crashed inside of me. Just a bad day. I can't explain it. I picked it back up but at mile 8-9, something again just went wrong. I was completely overworked midway around mile 11, and couldn't hold a running form from 12.5 miles on.
It sucked because I KNOW I can do better than this, and I will do this exact same course next weekend and I will do better. Who knows what went wrong today. Just a bad day.
I am proud of the fact that despite this being the closest I've ever felt to quitting a race, I persisted and finished. I know I can handle a lot of pain from my body now, haha.

Slow recovery run with a stride in the middle cause it was boring. Also, extremely windy when going north.
