Cold Hilly Run

Time: 48:30 (from gun to crossing the finish line). Net time (from crossing start line to crossing finish line), unsure, since they didn’t track that. I’m estimating about 47:00. Easily beat my goal of a 10-minute mile pace. Woohoo!

  • It was quite hilly. I was hurting around mile 3.
  • Unlike the NYC run, the only marker was spray paint on the ground at mile 4. Made pacing difficult.
  • The cold was a bit of an issue, mainly in what clothes I needed to wear.
  • If I’m going to do more winter runs I need running pants.
