Half Marathon Tomorrow

The culmination of about seven weeks of training come to head tomorrow morning.

The start is at 7am.   They say that it is possible to track someone on the race web site during the race and that it will track the 5K, 10K 10 mile and ending splits.  My splits should be..

5K-28:22

10K-56:44

10 miles-1:31:30

13.1 miles-1:59:52

There is a shuttle that I can take to get there, but I think that I am going to drive about a mile away from the race and walk there.  Since I am obsessive about everything, I will use that as my plan A and the shuttle as plan B.

I also like to have an exit strategy and having my van nearby would allow that.

For good luck, I am going shave off my “playoff beard” (it’s a hockey thing) .
