Little Rock Marathon Race Report Week March 7 through March 13

Sun, Mar 07, 2010


Race: Little Rock Marathon (26.2 Miles) 02:33:59, Place overall: 2, Place in age division: 1



Mile 1 5:39: Started slow and in 7th place the leader went through the half in 1:09:50 and 2nd and 3rd went through 1:12:50 1:13



Mile 2 5:28 running comfortably this course has a lot of ups and downs

Mile 3 5:39 feeling great and just going through the motions I just felt like it was a long run.

Mile 4 5:37 still just cruising along the curse a lot of turns

Mile 5 5:44 uphill and trying to find someone to work with



Mile 6 5:36 got directed wrong a cop working the streets was just talking to another cop while I was passing by I went about 1 block and half in and then he yelled at me telling me I was going the wrong way. So I ran 3 blocks extra in this section. I was pissed and told the cop, come on man, that’s why you are getting paid for.



Mile 7 5:36

Mile 8 5:33

Mile 9 5:38

Mile 10 5:43 uphill

Mile 11 5:38

Mile 12 5:40 uphill

Mile 13 5:36 downhill

Mile 14 5:50 uphill

Mile 15 6:03 uphill

Mile 16 5:46 uphill From Mile 10 through 16 was the toughest section and I think this is were it wore down my legs.



Mile 17 5:49 downhill putting breaks

Mile 18 5:38 flat passed 4th place

Mile 19 5:46 flat passed 3rd place mile

Mile 20 5:49 flat on my own in dead man’s land ….blister heaven

Mile 21 5:56 flat

Mile 22 5:57 flat

Mile 23 6:15 flat lost concentration

Mile 24 6:19 flat not focusing on task and these musha 2 are killing my feet

Mile 25 6:31 1 small hill

Mile 26 6:24 coming down the hill











Note I did not hit the wall I just lost sight of what I was doing after I moved up to 2nd and it was just tough to move forward since there was no one else to work with.



Overall time 2:33:59 2nd place overall not a p.r. and definetly was not happy with the outcome. Gotta regroup and hit it hard for the Eugene Marathon in May.





Ran 20 good miles and then lost sight of what I was doing....no I didn't hit the wall...my blisters were hurting, there was no one to work with...and my legs were beat up from all the uphill running through the course...a) get some other shoes b) run in a bigger marathon c) run some harder tempos with more mileage....



Pics later...

Monday:

Post marathon run... the first mile a bit tight and sore, but all of that wore off after 10 mins and muscles were moving with slight soreness but nothing big as I have in other marathons... most probably will pick it up after 2 or 3 days of easy running!
