Sunday: Half marathon PB of 83:08.
3rd PB in three weeks. Sub50 picked me up at 5:30 and it was cold. We parked at the Domain. I had a Vinnies jacket and throw away gloves so no need for a drop bag. The preferred start was easy. The goal was sub 83. Unfortunately I had my garmin set on auto pause, and it paused under the corkscrew. I therefore thought I was going extremely fast early, when in fact I was behind pace. Realised the error at 5k when I was 20 or so secs behind pace. Never really picked up the time. I would get back on track and then fall behind when a hill would slow me down. Sub50 was with me until about 8k and then dropped off. The section from Hickson to Macquarie St was tough and I couldn't really lift the pace through the Art Gallery section. Just missed out on a sub 83, but it was a ~45 sec PB.
Splits were:
5k - 19:31
10k - 19:36
15k - 19:57
20k - 19:54
Total for the week - 73k in 5.5 hours @ 4:40
