| 98 | 5 May 2002 | Vancouver, BC | 4:15:13 | Marathon! Got
most of my splits...there were a few spots where there either weren't
mile markers or I missed them. My plan was to do 10:00 miles until
the midway point then see what I had left for the rest. 9:30-9:45
splits felt comfortable so I kept with that pace for most of the
time. Splits:
1-9:35; 2-9:39; 3-9:27; 4&5-17:48 (plus +/- 2:14 bathroom) (avg: 8:54); 6-9:31; 7-9:29; 8-9:24; 9-9:23; 10&11-20:17 (avg: 10:09); 12-9:26; 13-9:32; 14-10:18; 15-8:59; 16-9:10; 17-9:55; 18&19-19:03 (avg: 9:32); 20-9:45; 21-10:45; 22-9:24; 23-9:40; 24&25-21:29 (avg: 10:45); 26.2-10:53 (last mile was +/- 8:53). Best mile: mile 26 (8:53); Worst mile: miles 24&25 (avg 10:45) Talked to a guy with a NYRRC shirt...he was from Vancouver and was wearing his NYMarathon shirt for good luck. Talked to another guy for a mile or so, left him at the hill around mile 14. Left hamstring cramped up around mile 25.2, had to limp for a bit until it worked itself out. Never really hit the wall...maybe it was miles 24&25?? Beat old PR by over 16:00! |
