Atlanta Publix Half Marathon
Atlanta Publix Half Marathon
I ran this as a tune up race for Boston, and was very happy with how it went! I had a minimal 2 day taper after a high mileage week, so I was not
expecting this race to go as well as it did. This week was almost a 70 mile week!
I initially planned on running this as a marathon pace tempo. I went out slightly faster than marathon pace, and as the race progressed, I felt
really good! I decided to push it more and more as the race progressed. At the end, my average pace for the race ended up being a 6:56 min/mi
This was a very large race! Many of my friends in Georgia Tech Run Club ran it, so even though it poured before and after the race, it was really fun!
