Clarksville Half-Marathon

November 7, 2009 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: windy, slight chill

Comments:
took out conservative. first 5 miles at 5:55 pace, then we picked it up the next 5 at 5:50 pace. switched leads in the wind and the last 4.1 miles i took off to catch the leader. he gave me a good fight around mile 11 to mile 12.5 but after that he fell back hard. last half mile was the toughest half mile i felt i've ever ran. felt great to cross that finish line breaking the tape on m first 13.1! I was very honored and humbled to recieve our country's constitution on a very nice picture frame with a painting of D.C. with eagles flying over it. Those ARMY boys do it up nice! Probly the most prestigious road race i've ever ran and won, i just felt so honored to be the winner today. They also gave me a 101st airborn bag with a bunch of airborn logo goodies, my favorite being the challenge coin:)
