First of all Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadians blogger friends. Hope you are relaxing and enjoying the holiday! I am cooking a turkey dinner today for my mom and sister (she came home from Nashville to visit!). Great for active recovery!
Despite a recent post about losing my mojo, I surprised myself with a small PB yesterday at Steamtown. I finally felt like I had some kick in my legs and ran my first ever NEGATIVE split marathon.
Time - 4:08:54 (a 26 second PB). Given that this was a training run, and I was doubting even a 4:30 finish, I am very pleased with this result.
Full report to come. Major congratulations to all the marathon runners out there this weekend, there were a ton of great results, and I look forward to reading your reports.
Now you'll have to excuse me, I have a turkey to stuff and get in the oven and an apple crisp to bake. Have a great Monday!
congrats on a great race - negative marathon splits is huge!! Happy Thanksgiving too!
