I ran 44’43 at first 10K, that is 7m’12s’ pace; which just as I planned before start to go easy for the first quarter of the race. Then I pick up the pace to 7m’07s’ after duck behind others and ran 1’33’14’ at half way. After running solo in head wind for 6.9 miles, I slow my pace down to 7m’11s’ at mile 20 for 2’23’49’. I think the adrenaline was pump up after I noticed only 10K to go; I finished the last 6.2 miles in 43’44’, which is 7m’02s’ pace.
Time per Mile | Pace per Mile | |
@ 10K | 00:44:43 | 7m12s per mile |
@ 13.1 | 01:33:14 | 7m07s per mile |
@ 20 mile | 02:23:49 | 7m11s per mile |
@ Finish | 03:07:33 | 7m09s per mile |
Last 10K | 00:43:44 | 7m02s per mile |
I ran faster per mile in the last 10K than the first 20-hard-mile. This is very frustrating for me. I was so ready for this thing; but weather forecast is not something within my control. I am not happy.
Actually, that's a pretty solid way to run a marathon.
