Run > Race

Reading HM. Brilliant run. Pace felt so easy on race day. Garmin got 'lost' about half way round and added roughly a quarter mile so I had to do some mental calcs at each mile to work out if I was on pace. Target was 1.24. Finish time was 1.23.18 (official chip time). Never felt uncomfortable at any point and really wanted to speed up but I've never raced or trained at this pace so I held back to avoid blowing up. HR suggests this was closer to marathon pace. Very confident of sub 3 at Paris now, and looking past that to the summer to get another shot at a HM and see if I can go sub 80.<br>
