For some reason I hold back a bit during the half marathon race. I think it's because I'm always training for a marathon when I'm doing the half. Some day I'll see just how fast I can do this race. @ Debra: In a marathon, I’m able to do the first half in about 1:35. For some reason I hold back a bit during the half marathon race.

I never saw you pass me, but since you beat me by 25 seconds you obviously did. My starting pace was too leisurely, pep talking my neighbor for the first couple miles and wondering if and how the rain would affect my own run. My plan was for 1:37, & though I should have made it -- esp since it turned out that I loved the rain and found it energizing...at least until afterwards...standing around waiting for my neighbor to finish I became a good deal more than a mite chilly. Anyway...good run! I did enjoy running w/ you. I don't know what your usual pace is for halfs, but if we ever find ourselves racing together again, would you let me know if you pass me...at least give my competitive edge the opportunity of stepping it up.
