What a great day (and cold) to run a half marathon in Atlanta

plus, I never want to miss an opportunity to race something that involves the amazing Jeff Galloway.

Put the JG 13.1 race on your list for the following reasons:

It’s a race weekend, meaning there is ALSO a 5k on Saturday – Barb’s 5k – with Jeff’s wife, Barbara.  (Who I actually saw also running the 13.1 today, too.)

I was fueled by this thread on Facebook for favorite running songs – had a great playlist, day and run!

I did a 2:30/:30 run-walk interval and I stayed in Zone 2 for the whole run, with a pace of 11:30–which is a great improvement from my Zone 2 training half marathon of last year!  Progress happens, yo… just at different paces for everyone.

I can say that this was THE most enjoyable running race I have had in a really long time.  I felt amazing until about Mile 12–then I was just ready to be done.  BUT, a great day.

Make sure you check out Jeff and his plans, and his races!

Until next year!
