Training Log 01/19/2025

Race day. Cool and windy, especially for Houston. Temperature at race start was in the 30’s.

Today was a day to set a measured pace and not push on the hamstring. I had my doubts that it would hold up, and was shocked at how good it felt throughout the race. It helped that the route was mostly flat, with only a few dips and rises to go under freeways.

Today’s run was the Chevron Houston Marathon. Pace was about 11:09. Who cares. Total climb was maybe 350 feet, and probably not even that.
