2nd Best 10 Mile Time Ever!!
Today during the Buffalo Stampede/Parrott Migration I managed to get my 2nd Best 10 Mile Time Ever!! My best 10 Mile time was back in 2000 at the Annapolis 10-Miler and what is now my 3rd Best 10 Mile Time was at the Army 10-Miler shortly thereafter. In 2000, I was significantly lighter AND was training and completing marathons! Yet despite my current extra poundage, comparable limited training mileage, AND being 11 years older I managed an impressive time of 2:07.34!!! So excited.
I have done this particular race for the last 3 years. Here's a summary.
- Year 1: Required a police escort for several miles during the race because I was LAST! Finished with a time of 2:43.47
- Year 2: No police escort needed. Finished with a time of 2:25.15
- Today: 2:07.34
That's a 35 minute improvement or 3:30 min/mile faster in just 2 years. The coolest thing is that when I plugged in my finish time in the race predictor calculator, it said my half marathon time would be 2:50! That would also be my 2nd best half marathon time ever! I'm seeing a trend here. I'll be able to see if it holds true in three weeks. I can't complain but I also can't wait until my times become my BEST time ever.
