Get the gas station now.

It's Ah, It's only 6 a.m. In the morning, actually.

Still pretty dark, but we're heading two senior. 00:00:59.460 --> 00:01:6.250 That's the place where I'm gonna be running the race with an hour in six minutes, to be exact from here. 00:01:6.910 --> 00:01:8.980 So, uh, yeah, Feeling good? 00:01:8.990 --> 00:01:11.230 I think I'm ready for this race.

And you're just trying to get some gas.

And, uh, well, see you guys in senior point.

So we're almost here. 00:02:0.040 --> 00:02:0.310 Yeah. 00:02:3.540 --> 00:02:3.750 All right.

Swatches for Daddy.

He's gonna be coming soon.

Hey, guys, what's going on?

So it's been two days since the race day and still feeling pretty sore, but I think my body is recovering very well.

I actually ran, like, 1/2 an hour today.

I'm feeling great.

So someone 30 half marathon has ended. 00:02:59.150 --> 00:03:0.680 It ended very well. 00:03:1.650 --> 00:03:7.600 I feel Of course, I feel amazing because I hit my goal, But a race was snapped. 00:03:7.710 --> 00:03:8.660 An easy race. 00:03:8.670 --> 00:03:11.950 That was a really hard earned P r for me.

So what happened?

Waas, um, the day before the race check my email just to get specific directions going to the location, and then I just noticed that they actually change the location and then the course, just really hoping that the the new course would be a little bit easier than the original course.

Because, like I said, the original course was some rolling hills and out and back, and the course was just like a pretty challenging course.

So it was actually completely opposite when we started a race that even like mild, too.

And then we were already facing some, like major hills. 00:03:57.210 --> 00:04:3.780 I said, like, this is interesting and the horse running like I would say though 6 50 pace. 00:04:3.910 --> 00:04:8.510 But the pace felt like pretty hard for me. 00:04:8.520 --> 00:04:19.350 And I know that I shouldn't be feeling that way because, like on my training, I was like running like, even below six forties and didn't feel like that way.

So I know that I was not running fast.

It waas from like those hills, then, yeah, as we went on, we were just like facing us after hills after Hills and I was like, almost in a panic mode.

It's because I said like this scores is like really hard and, um, at that point, like like I said, I was in a panic mode, like thinking that I don't really know the scores.

And there seemed to be like real hard.

Was that even like a 10 K mark?

And it was already like struggling. 00:04:55.030 --> 00:05:5.570 It's like it's not because of the fast basis because of like those giant hills and then Miles five, I decided, Like I said, I really need to make a decision from here. 00:05:5.580 --> 00:05:10.140 I need to be very efficient in order for me to get a really good time.

And I just, you know, I just need to focus.

It was not been like 10 k.

I took my jail and then I said, like, I really have to maybe, like, push the pace a little bit.

Legs were starting to get like, really like heavy, too, because of those hills.

So after five miles, I I actually took the jail and then I just like pushing the pace a little bit and I was feeling a little bit better.

But of course, like I was extorting more effort, maybe just tried to get that like, heavy legs and then after that I can get a like a steady pace again.

But then the good thing, though, after like I would say, like seven Mount 78 So this guy was running and then we were kind of like You're running pretty much the same pace.

And then I just like around with him and then started, like talking to him a little bit about the course, and he was also like saying, This is like a really challenging course said like, he does this race pretty much every year and the original course, It's actually a little bit easier than this, actually living the full marathon.

So I said, like good luck.

I was like, actually a big help for me because, like if I can see someone that running the same pace us, me like I would just like steak with a person feels a little bit easier, like mentally and like it's because like, it's almost like you're helping out each other.

So we did, and they started talking, so we felt like a little bit more comfortable.

Ask him when are we gonna like break apart?

Because I know that the full marathon is like it's gonna go separate direction, like at a certain distance.

So I said, like a mountain so it will reach, like, mild 10.

And I was like, feeling a little bit better and think I had that second wind and we were a little bit like, easier like sections of the course. 00:06:58.810 --> 00:07:2.500 It was a little bit flattered, and I felt good. 00:07:2.510 --> 00:07:5.080 I was like, running a little bit better. 00:07:5.080 --> 00:07:10.740 And then almost like I was set, making like a big gap from him.

And I just told him like I'm gonna push myself.

This is gonna be the last five gave the race, and for me, this is like a make or break.

I think if I can maybe push myself a little bit better, I think I can get a better time.

I told him like I'm gonna push myself.

And I told him, like good luck in your race.

So I was feeling good because that section was actually pretty flat and then dropping 6 30 pays in, even like six twenties.

And I was just feeling good because it was almost like, 10 miles of like, grinding.

And then when, you know, I felt that flat section of the course, it felt so good.

But it was just pushing the face hard and then so like one of the runners.

And then I asked her, Are we done with the hills? 00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:6.950 And then she said, like, actually said, Yeah, this is basically flat course for the finish line and she also told me that there's gonna be a little bit downhill in the end. 00:08:7.340 --> 00:08:13.340 So it helped me a lot because of what you told me, and I was just like, keep pushing the base.

I was feeling good, and then she actually lied to me.

There was still, like, one major hill of the end.

But I said, It doesn't matter because I'm getting really close to finishing this race.

So I just get pushing it pushing.

It's only like half of my left.

I think I got so tired from, like pushing the pace and the Yeah, I was I was exhausted, But I said like, uh, I'm gonna get like, a pretty good time if I keep doing this S o.

I was feeling tired and I should see at the end of the finish line, I almost passed out.

It's because I always do that like I'm never tired of him.

Um, see the clock.

I would just lay everything.

That's why I always feel like I'm always gonna pass out at the end.

Because I always do that. 00:08:58.740 --> 00:09:0.400 And I think, Yeah, Run. 00:09:0.400 --> 00:09:5.110 I think the last five gay like 20 minutes, which is, like, really solid five gay. 00:09:5.480 --> 00:09:12.850 So official time is one hour, 28 minutes, 22 seconds, which is like a really solid PR for me.
