Result: 23:42 (Technically, it's five seconds slower than the first half of a 10-k I ran back in January on a flat course in 60 degree coolness. I used that as part of my 10-k pr though.).
Average Heart Rate: 171
Maximum Heart Rate: 194 (I didn't know my heart could beat that fast)
There were two options for the race: (1) Hang out in the back of the pack with my virtual friends; (2) Set a pr against my virtual friends. Because I didn't get out of the house until 9:40, it looked like option 1 was the choice. In fact, when you're doing aerobic base training, you're not supposed to do any anaerobic runs. When my feet started moving, the plan was to run it slow. About .1 miles in I changed my mind.
I have three months until the Really Big Free Half Marathon in Henderson and I plan to do only aerobic base training until then.
You have to go with feeling good. Nice work!
