Well, I wanted to finish the month on a positive note, not that it's been a bad month. Actually, looking at the totals, I've been on a steady improvement since January and the weather has obviously played a big factor. I wanted to see how I'd do running a half-marathon. The reason is that the Vancouver Marathon is on May 7th and I've been thinking about competing in it ever since I ran the Seattle Marathon back in November but have been unsure whether or not I could do it due to my knee problem.

Well today I think proved that I can do it. I ran a 7:35 pace without too much effort although I seriously doubt I could have done it again to make it a full marathon. That's OK though, the marathon is still 36 days away so I have plenty of time to train. But, I am satisfied with the shape I'm in at this point and the biking must be helping a lot.

The route today was an extended Elliot Bay run with an extension to the marina heading north and to the waterfront heading south.

Total: 13.1mi Run (7:35min/mi pace); 1546 cal.; 141 lb.
