7 weeks Half Marathon Training Program Day 15
14 miles long run.
Route for today : 4 laps bukit cinta (4 big loops of UM) (Each lap 5.5km)
Thanks to my training partner for pacing with me today. Starts run at 6.25am. We gather in front of UM Arena and starts at there. Straight head up to bukit cinta. First lap manage to finish with 22:40.99 minutes.
Comes to 2nd lap, my body still able to maintain for it. Finished 2nd lap with the time of 23:09.35 minutes. 10km split time - 42:30 minutes.
The time when running into the third lap, can feel the hill is killing. Pace drop a bit but still able to continue the journey. End up with 23:31.23 minutes for the third lap split time. 10 miles split time - 66:32 minutes.
When comes to the fourth lap, going up the hill that time, my leg telling me enough, stop it, but my mind fight back with it, saying must finish it, die die must finish it, just one last hill to go. Manage to finish the bukit cinta with kind a slow pace, thanks to Alleasy, my running partner for pacing, slowing down for me. When comes to kk12 there, we planning to do a sprint finish when reaching the swimming pool there. So sprint it all the way to the main entrance of UM Arena. End up with 23:18.52 minutes for last lap.
21km split time - 89:32 minutes. (Sub 90 minutes)
Total time - 1 hour 32 minutes 40 sec for 21.76km according to my running partner GPS watch. With the pace of 4:16 min/km.
Happy to break my first sub 1 hour 30 min for a half marathon some more with the 4 crazy hills. Thanks again really appreciate my running partner for today !
