I have three weeks before my 1/2 marathon run. I want to run it in a time under 2 1/2 hours.

Yesterday I ran 12 miles in 3 hours (15 minute pace). I feel pretty good today and will take a short recovery run later today.

To get under 2 1/2 hours is going to take some work. I’ll need to shoot for a 10/11 minute pace which I thought was pretty reachable … until yesterday. Maybe 2 1/2 hours was a bit aggressive this soon.

I’ve played two sets of 9 holes in the last week and shot 46 and then 47.

Had 1 O.B. ball off the tee in the first nine and 2 O.B. off the tee in the second nine. I’ll need to hit the fairway on all 18 – even if I only hit the ball 200 yds to shoot in the 80’s.

Off to the driving range tomorrow.
