It's a downhill course with 2000ft drop, fastest HM in the world. The name
is attractive. But it also messed up with my objectives. At start, I was
thinking of NYCM qualifying time 1:23. Felt warm and humid, HR was higher
than I expected. By mile 3, I knew the goal was unrealistic. Then I aimed to
PR(1:27). By mile 9, knowing it was not my day, I further reduced it to
Marathon pace run. The final result on my watch was | c*********n 发帖数: 2120 | 2 That is super fast! Congratulations!
Maybe your running god is leading you to your big goal-:)

really need to push it the heat would prevent you from doing your best. The
sun also makes a big difference.

| | | w********6 发帖数: 12977 | 11 exactly, when I was running in 60F, I felt much better when I was in
shade, but once I was exposed in bright sunlight, the feeling is totally
different, and as matter of fact, as indicated by my car's temp reading,
with direct sunlight, a 60F day may turn out to be 70F at least.
Today's race ending of 69F, I am pretty sure it is actually 79 under the
sun.

| b***i 发帖数: 10018 | 18 try to lean forward without bending your lower back.
land on midfoot, don't brake, don't overstride either.
minimize arm movement, use arms only for balance.
my quads would hurt afterwards, that's expected from downhill running.
but i didn't feel anything on my knees.
