Ran my first half marathon with my dad down Provo Canyon today. I was really pleased with my time. Starting out, I anticipated that I'd be able to hold 7:30 pace for about 7 miles, then I'd slow down to 8:00 for a few miles, and then I'd crash and run 8:30ish to the finish. It went a lot better than I thought it would. I ended up averaging 7:09 for the whole thing- my slowest mile was 7:43.
