I ran the Charleston Half Marathon today, and in a first (for a flat race), I ran the second half faster than the first half. In fact, the last 6.2 miles ended up being the fastest 10K I've run in the past year. That may say more bad things about my top speed than about my distance running.
It was one of my most consistent runs as well. The weather was perfect and course was pancake flat, so I didn't hit my wall around Mile 10, and just kept rolling.
Pace by Mile:
Mile Time
1 - 10:00 (jockeying for position with lots of people)
2 - 9:27
3 - 9:26
4 - 9:25
5 - 9:19
6 - 9:21
7 - 9:13
8 - 9:26
9 - 9:09
10 - 9:08
11 - 9:21
12 - 9:31
13 - 9:05
13.2 - 8:26 (My race was a little long, likely due to lots of weaving between people in the early miles.)
