I will spare you the details, but let&#39;s just say a lot went in and not much out for quite a few hours after!!! The cool weather threw me off a bit, as did the 6k stretch on the highway with no aid stations. :Pjonovision_manhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16194112285903636442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-27010536499207972072009-11-02T12:37:02.752-05:002009-11-02T12:37:02.752-05:00Couple of things....<br /><br />Talking uses energy. And it&#39;s only Kieran.<br /><br />Was your nutrition right? Enough salt and water? <br /><br />Did you have a few too many hallowe&#39;en treats? <br /><br />This race was clearly a success for you: set a pb. Learned the importance of pacing. Learned to bring your own recovery food just in case. Helped you set a target for the next half marathon. set a pb.<br /><br />Great seeing you yesterday -- hope to see you again soon.John Chttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15348002052380879261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-34796019523926309942009-11-01T21:51:22.786-05:002009-11-01T21:51:22.786-05:00I have no doubt you&#39;ll beat 1:45 anytime. You still set a new record for me to beat next time! :-)<br /><br />It seems our heart rate range is similar. I&#39;ve been worrying about my heart rate for a long time this year - but not anymore. Racing at 170ish is fine for me, 180 - 190ish can&#39;t last too long.Felixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00375917336040100194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-71530605518926969852009-11-01T19:49:27.581-05:002009-11-01T19:49:27.581-05:00Sorry you didn&#39;t reach you goal. But great run none the less.<br /><br />Now enjoy the down time!Boris T.http://www.blogger.com/profile/12109794946605173132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-77284430130243497182009-11-01T18:43:12.114-05:002009-11-01T18:43:12.114-05:00@Kieran - even when I dropped back I was still holding around that pace, you must have been going quicker than you thought! :) If this race was 17k long I&#39;d have rocked it!!! LOL. <br /><br />My max heart rate was 198bpm ... I can&#39;t believe it&#39;s that high, I should really do a max HR test and find out for sure. Obviously &quot;220 minus your age&quot; ain&#39;t working for me!jonovision_manhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16194112285903636442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-27251048646260351232009-11-01T18:37:35.273-05:002009-11-01T18:37:35.273-05:00I was actually surprised to see you again after you dropped the pace. I looked at your Garmin data and couldn&#39;t believe your heart rate - I can&#39;t believe you kept running when you hit 190 - you gotta set some alarms on that thing my friend! Still, a strong finish and a PB by a minute and a half is pretty good!Kieranhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11115370459990770391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603310121784038818.post-46475295207081250032009-11-01T17:18:09.727-05:002009-11-01T17:18:09.727-05:00Good race, Jono...sorry it didn&#39;t quite work out right. You sure did get that HR up....you&#39;ll break that goal in due time.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01017940217633302604noreply@blogger.com
