![]() ![]() It may be because I started out faster than my usual running pace and I got too tired too fast trying to keep up with my friends. ![]() I started out ok but somewhere along the line after mile 3, when we entered the park and the course started to go physically uphill, I personally went downhill and downhill fast, lol. Usually I can get myself in the zone and focus but this race was the first time in a while I just couldn’t click into it. Some days are good run days and some days you're just not feeling it. All day today I felt like I got ran over. I couldn’t pinpoint whether it was just an off day for me, or the temperatures really affecting me more than I could consciously feel or whatever, but I definitely felt it during the race, after when I went to work, and the next morning when I woke up. I've done this distance so many times before but this particular day felt really hard. ![]() The sun staved off for a few hours before we finally got onto Ocean Parkway. We got lucky with the morning starting with a thick layer of fog so no sun, but the humidity was INTENSE. Man, all I have to say is that shit was REALLY HARD. This Saturday May 21 was my 3rd NYRR race and my first time running the RBC Brooklyn Half. ![]()
