NYRR Manhattan Half Marathon 2009

1:19:24
33rd overall out of 4586
Pace/Mile: 6:03
Age Grade: 79.5%
Age Group Place: 3rd of 410
Date: 1/25/2009
Location: NY, NY (Central Park)
Comments: The air was crisp and clear...I could complain that it was too cold at 14 degrees, however, something was working for me since this was the second fastest half marathon I have ever run. And my best if I take age grading into account (which I really can't). I went out a little fast at 5:55 for the first mile, 12:02 at two (6:07), 17:52 at three (5:50), 24:02 at four (6:10), from that point on I kind of ran a more even pace between 6:00 - 6:05, except between miles 9 to 10 which was my slowest mile something between 6:15 - 6:20. I think my split at 10 miles was 1:00:34. NYRR's changed the course slightly they moved the start and finish back approximately two miles, start was at West 63rd, I liked it.
