Topic: Does The Last 6.2 Ever Feel Better???

Do you feel you went out too fast? I don't think you gave what your finishing time was. For my last two marathons my goal was under 4:00 and I ran 4:07:30 and 4:00:59 (my very 1st was 4:35). I went out too fast for me in the 4:07 finish, and did not enjoy the last 6.2. I had a much better race pace plan for the next try 4:00:59 and had a good last 6.2. Training continuously throughout the year has been important for my own improvement and resulted in shorter race times that predict I should now reach that under 4 goal in my next attempt (Grandmas 2001). Good Luck! Post a reply on the Bulletin Board
