The course I plan on doing this year is hilly so really I just want do better than last time (sub 1:40) and not feel like I am going to die when I finish. I felt so bad last time. I think a good 1/2 id different for everyone. For me I would love to be close to 1:30. I think that would be a very good 1/2 for me. I may be fast on the shorter distances, but I don't do distance (yet). I have only run over 10 miles once in my life. and that was the aforementioned 1/2. |

I would very much like to break 1:30 but every time it looks possible I get injured. In your forties, running fast often causes injuries.
So I'd like to design a running program to break 1:30 while staying healthy. I'm about a 1:38 to 1:35 on a good day, but unless I'm going downhill, I don't know where to find the extra twenty seconds a mile.

I like that race. Besides it being a gorgeous course, it's fast. I ran my half PR there in '06: 1:44:35. I couldn't do that on a course that's not downhill.
