Kickapoo Rail Trail |
That half-marathon time is looking ripe for a new faster PB. Only 69% age-graded equivalent? That will not do! Before the end of this month, I'll lower that to about 1:35. Promise.
Over the next 2 months I have several virtual races: half marathons in September, October, and November, plus a 5K in October. Sure seems like I should attempt a marathon before the end of the year. I can't promise anything fast, and I have not been training for long distances (beyond the half-marathon), but I'm capable of ~3:45 finish time. With endurance training, maybe a 3:35? That's my target Boston Qualifying time. Would be bitter sweet to clock a BQ time in a solo, non-official, event.

Congratulations on the recent PR's! How do you like the Next%'s on that dirt surface? Do you feel like you still get the max benefit from them or feel like you give a little of that back? I have a couple time trials coming up myself and debating what surface I want to do it on.
The Vaporfly Next% still work well on packed dirt, but you lose a little bounce. The combo of dirt plus Vaporfly saves my kegs. They never feel trashed.
