newport liberty half-marathon 2006

my 1st half-marathon, with dep and butch. the target was to finish the course in ~2hrs 27min, with this pace breakdown: 1st 7mi @ 12min/mi, next 3mi @ 11min/mi, last 3mi @ 10min/mi. we went a bit fast at the start with a pace close to 10min/mi and decided to maintain that pace (if we can). my legs started to feel the strain after 9 miles, and i was in survival mode after that. we finished the course in 2hrs 13min. not bad for a first-timer, eh?

post-run analysis: need to train harder for next year's event(s). prior to this event, the farthest i've run was 7.6mi.
