We did it!

Well, I hit my pledges goal this past weekend! Yay! Thanks so much you guys!


Now I am extra pumped to get my runs in (I have three monthly mileage pledges) and to rock the Destin half (I have three race pledges as well)... which is in less than 2 weeks!!


I've learned from my last half, so the things I'll be sure not to do this time around are:

- Going out too fast.  I pushed to the point of getting a side stitch before the first half mile... looking back, I don't think I ever recovered from that.

- Pushing too much too soon. This goes hand in hand with the first point; once I felt "warmed up" I pushed way too much, especially since I was still over a mile away from the halfway point.

-Inadequate sun protection. I had a hat... and that was it. No sunscreen so my skin got pretty toasted.

-Not hydrating well/electrolyte balancing. I took in zero electrolytes and I suffered for it later that day when I started to feel really ill.

- Not timing gels well. I waited way too long to eat my first gel, which led to me eating a lot of gels really close together, which didn't feel great.

-Not peeing before hand. Pretty self explanatory.


I'm hoping to do better on all of these in Destin. Will that lead to a noticeably better performance? Who knows, but I certainly hope so!
