| A breakthrough run for me. Not sure of what to completely think about it. Troy drove Kim, Jane and I 22 miles from the finish of SGM and up the course. He dropped us off (so about mile marker 4.2). We dropped off water/gatorade and gu at four places along the route (3.25, 8.8, 14, and 19.2, I have a good memory : D) We took off at 6:30am. The sun was edging its way over the canyon. It was very beautiful. So nice to not be in race mode at SG. I have never run the course without it being race day. So this was a real treat. My plan was to stay with Jane and Kim for as long as I could. I didn't want them to slow for me so I let them do the pacing. I stayed with them the whole way which was SHOCKING!! AND I felt REALLY strong at the end pushing them at just before the true 24 mile marker of the course where we stopped for our last swig of gatorade (19.2). After that I felt even stronger but BIONIC Kim and Jane ALL READY for the PROVO MARATHON in three weeks with all their Max VO2 workouts were even stronger, like I felt like "hey, is this the marathon and I am fading ???? NO!! because I see my watch reading 6:34, and then 6:34 again and they are 15 seconds ahead of me? what in the heck!!! ?????? The last mile I slow to 6:51 cause oddly my car odometer is off and we were at 21.5 miles at the finish and NOT 22 (MY MENTAL PROBLEM) so we had to go right by the finish line and add on uphill and turn around. Jane and Kim at this point are over 40 seconds ahead from when we took off from 19.5 miles and I am HIGH FIVING them as they fly by me at the turn around to finish the run just back at the FINISH LINE and I still have to make the turnaround. AMAZING!!! If they are moving WELL today that would be even MORE amazing!! I had no plans of ripping up those last few miles. I have never run that fast at the end of a 22 miler and IRONICALLY never that fast on the SGM course!!! It gave me HOPE to finish strong come OCTOBER 1st!!! Here are the splits (all of us the same until mile 19.2): WARNING THIS IS RIDICOULOUSLY ODD FOR ME!! FASTER THAN MY MARATHON PR AVERAGE PACE. WEIRD. I am weirded out!! 7:21, 7:15, 7:44 (coming upon VEYO), 8:03, 7:28, 7:35, 7:27, 7:01, negative splits coming up : D, 7:04, 6:52, 6:44, 6:41, 6:44, 7:01 (that hill at mile 18 during the marathon), 6:45, 6:41, 6:54 (not sure why Kim and Jane are slowing and I feel like I am going to trip over them since I have been running two paces behind them the whole way), 6:57, I feel really like I should be running faster but they are still going easy. Maybe on purpose? I put my music on at mile 14 because I could no longer hear them with all the speeding cars going by. 6:46 (I ran past them because I SO LOVE THIS MILE OF THE MARATHON-- where all the spectators stand and put their hands out to cheer you on-- AND I FELT GREAT ONCE AGAIN : D), here is the shocker---- 6:34, 6:34, then my slower mile, feeling defeated-- 6:51. But I wasn't defeated this was a great, fantastic MENTAL BOOST for me. AP for 22 miles at 7:03 (7:02.7 to be exact : D)!!! I am in shock. Completely.
