Just finished my first 11 mile run. I completed it in 1:57:53 a ta pace of 10:42 m/m. Though to be honest the actual time should be about 3 minutes less at 1:55:53. The Busch race was rained out last night and is being run this morning. My running course takes me right by the speedway and I got stopped for two minutes by race traffic. It was the same place I got stopped in my bike ride on Thursday. I did try to keep moving while at the light and I think that might have hurt me more in the end. I basically bounced for two minutes and in the last mile my hips started bothering me a bit. The next time I get stopped at a light I am just going to stand and wait for it turn.
Overall I feel pretty good, knees and legs are fine. For the first time since I decided to run the half marathon I am positive that I will be able to run the complete distance.
