Ajax Half Marathon

I started mid-week leading up to the race to get my fluids and nutrients right. I was cautious not to consume anything to upset my stomach. Wednesday I started eating baked beets every day. The evening before the race I tried Emmune7 for the first time. Took two tablets with dinner even though it said without food.  31/2 hours before the race Saturday I took 2 more tablets and 2 following the race with dinner. Same again for Sunday’s race. I figured I needed all the help I could get as it would be my very first ½ Marathon.

My plan for the ½ marathon was to finish in two hours as it was my very first race this long especially when I did a 10k the day before. I figured I would try between the 1.5hr and 1.55hr pacer bunnies. I had to make a pit stop at the start of the race due to cold windy temperatures, It cost me about three minutes that I was able to recover at the latter half of the race. I was very happy to finish with a 1.53hr run. I was so happy with my results.
