Comments:

Started with a good pace, faster than expected, and was able to hold the pace until the last couple of miles.
What would you do differently?:

Focus on maintaining the pace through the end. Mentally, I lost focus and was dropped from a group that I ran with most of the race.
Post race
Warm down:

Walked around and had a cinnamon roll and chocolate milk

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Focus more training on the distance. The original plan was to run the marathon, but unable to get the long runs in to properly prepare. Only focused on a faster pace the last 2 weeks before the race.

Steady is our walk. Ignoring the pain that is radiating from my feet, I continue to place one foot in front of the other. Again I wonder, “Why am I doing this?”

I will assume you have not run consistently more than 6 miles and have never completed a half-marathon. I believe running your first half-marathon is a big task which requires dedication and work.

My training was taking off. I had never felt stronger. I was making bigger strides than I ever had. I was stronger and faster than I had imagined myself ever being.
