Another Personal Best today!

Here is Liz’s report from the Police Half here in Calgary!

Calgary Police half Marathon 2010

2:19:26

I shaved 20 minutes off last years Police half time and 4 minutes off my last half in February!

WOOT!!!

I felt strong for the entire race, kept a very steady pace from start to finish, (average pace was 6:37). I couldn’t believe how great I felt during the entire run, even after the hills which were tough. I took your advice and shortened my walk breaks. I continued to take shorter walk breaks even after 40 minutes, I just walked long enough to take in water and fuel. Getting another PB was great, really great, but now I am going to tell you about the BEST part of today’s race. The BEST part of today’s race  was crossing the finish line and getting my medal put around my neck by my BEST friend and training partner Tracy!! Tracy’s volunteer assignment today was giving out the medals at the finish line!!  Can you believe that! For that reason the Calgary Police ½ marathon 2010 will go down in my training log as the BEST RACE EVER!!! It was such an awesome moment for me!

Awesome, after Tracy’s 5k PB least weekend, now this, what do we do for an encore next weekend?

20 minutes in one year? sweet.
