This is the Second Year for this hot summer time half marathon in Denton, Texas.  Fewer racers this year than 2014.  This will be the last half marathon I sign up for.  I just enjoy the longer races more.  This race was a Bad and Good race for me.  I just do not feel fully recovered from my Centurion Race the first of June.  The Bad: I was right. I have not recovered.  I have NO high gear. I am sure the heat of summer has something to do with it.  I remember last summer feeling like my training was tougher than it should be.  The Good: The gear I did race at  felt like I could have held all day long.  A sub 11:00 minute per mile pace would be a new personal best Marathon.  Now that this race is behind me time to step up my Training. 18 weeks to the Ultra Centric 24 Hour.  Now I have a goal race with a deadline. That will help my training.
