I did the half marathon in 2:14, my slowest half ever but perhaps the one of which I am most proud.  I treated it as a long slow run, chose a pace and stuck with it throughout the whole run.  In fact, I was so steady I kept thinking my Garmin wasn&#8217;t working because it stayed stuck on an average pace of 6:19 for 3\/4 of the race. I only truly felt tired at the 17k point, and that feeling was gone within 500 metres! I know this sounds ridiculous but much of the race just felt relaxing. I guess taking away any finish time goals just allowed me to go along for the ride.<\/p>\n<p>Lots more to talk about in the next post.  For now though, if you feel the need to hear more about my running you can take a listen to this weekend&#8217;s iRun podcast where I talked to Mark Sutcliffe about training for my first marathon.
