[salo-in-sport]

Белградский полумарафон.

После долгого перерыва снова на соревнованиях.

Холодно, но, как обещали вчера, дождя не идёт. По прогнозу он отодвинулся на пару часов. Стоим в предстартовой зоне. В толпе тепло, где-то в дали маячит пейсер 4:40. Первое, что подумал: надо держаться за него, ну и ок… Гимн Сербии… Стартовый гудок… Да, пейсера ещё придётся догнать, встал я не то чтобы удачно. Пробка в стартовом коридоре отъела, конечно, прилично времени. Будет мне наукой.

Особенность трассы: первая часть (около 3 км) идёт под горку, а вот финиш — наоборот, за 3 км долгий подъём, после небольшого сброса перед финишем резкий набор. Keep in mind. Не надо разбазаривать силы.

Где-то на 8-м км до финиша решил съесть припасённый гель, чтобы сделать ramp up за 3 км. Но каково же было моё удивление, когда я выдавил из себя гель и почувствовал вкус гнили и тухлости. К сожалению, большую половину я всё-таки заглотил. Что сказалось ближе к концу гонки: живот начало покручивать…

В общем, к забегу не готовился, но в течение пары месяцев просто бегал, не очень длинно и не очень долго. До этого был перерыв, связанный с постоянными переездами, срывами стартов и общей усталостью.

Приятно удивлён, что меня, в целом, никто не обогнал, кроме начального отрыва. А я, стартуя почти с конца, то и дело подъедал соперников, что свидетельствует о правильно выбранной тактике! Казус с гелем, конечно, немного омрачил ощущения от забега, но в целом я доволен. На финишном км остались силы для спринта, и удалось обогнать человек 10.

ну по итогу: 1:35.05 (чиптайм) 139/1406

UPDATE

Llevo ya dos semanas entrenando para mis metas. He mejorado un poco mis tiempos, aún no soy flash, pero estoy en proceso de tener, aunque sea, un tiempo decente en los 5 kilómetros.

Estoy muy contenta con mi progreso y mi entrenamiento, lo único que me preocupa es que todo mi entrenamiento ha sido en una caminadora dentro de un gimnasio, mañana iré a correr al aire libre después de mucho tiempo y, debo de admitir que, es aterrador porque aquí el clima te penetra los pulmones y la contaminación no ayuda tampoco, pero daré mi mejor esfuerzo e intentaré correr los 5 km sin morir, no tomaré el tiempo ni nada, sólo lo haré para divertirme.

Half-Marathon Run Streak # 15 - My only Half Marathon in this streak which is on road 8-| !!! The weather was so good and it was drizzling and the sunday morning was just perfect to hit the road 8-| !!! - Last year, in december, I ran on this very same route and the duration was 2hrs:49mins 8-| !!! That was my 4th consecutive Half Marathon and this is my 15th consecutive Half Marathon and moreover, the last run which was also Half Marathon was just less than 12hrs ago and yeah I was all morning empty stomach also 8-| !!! It really feels great that you're improving so much with time 8-| !!! - I was just bored from running in circles, laps, and loops, so road running made me feel great and adventurous 8-| !!! - - - - - #mrhappy #universeofmrhappy #halfmarathonchallenge #halfmarathoneveryday #halfmarathoneveryday #halfmarathonstreak #runstreak2019 #runstreak #13miles #21k #21keverydamnday #fitnesspakistan #pakistanfitness #runnersofinstagram #runnerslife #runningeveryday #urbanhalfmarathon #urbanrunners #roadrunner #roadrunning #bridgerunners #roadhalfmarathon #runningblogger #longdistancerunner #runnerscommunity (at Karachi, Pakistan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6L9LGbntOu/?igshid=1flnwhjrfjv8p

Half-Marathon Continuous Run Streak # 7 - One week of Half Marathon run streak completed and now hoping to take this streak to at least 10+ days or 2 weeks will be just so great 8-| !!! - I was having high fever last night and I was just feeling so cold with weakness also 8-| !!! I was so much worried but the will for my run was far greater than my illness 8-| !!! So I just kicked myself to the ground and started running instead of feeling sick at home and lying all day on the bed 8-| !!! - The first few kilometers were painful but I did not give up and continued my run 8-| !!! In the middle stages of the Half Marathon, it got fine and I was feeling all good 8-| !!! But in the last couple of kilometers, I did hit the wall cause maybe I was trying to pace up and it was very painful till the end of the run 8-| !!! Target pace today was just 2hr30mins cause of the sickness but the greed got me and then I was aiming for sub 6min/km pace 8-| !!! - I am so glad that I ran and finished the Half Marathon despite all the sickness, fever, and weakness 8-| !!! I have also broken my PB/PR of sickness run and before this, it was 18km 8-| !!! After the run, I felt fresh, energetic, stronger, and my mobility increased a lot and I think I am on the road to recovery now 8-| !!! - Now I am thinking that whenever I will feel sick again then I will just go for a run cause it instantly heals me 8-| !!! - - - - - #mrhappy #universeofmrhappy #halfmarathonrunner #halfmarathon #halfmarathonchallenge #halfmarathonstreak #runstreak2019 #runstreak #instahalfmarathon #endurancetraining #staminabuilding #staminaworkout #instadaily #photooftheday #fitnessphotos #stravarunning #instarun #instaworkout #sickness #sicknessrun #willpower #strongdetermination #targets #goals #mandatoryrunning (at Shaheed.e.inquilab Ground) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5ykDqYHFDK/?igshid=1i459agyqdtvg

Half-Marathon Continuous Run Streak # 2 - Cannot believe myself as I hit another PB/PR in Half Marathon run today and the previous record was just set yesterday 8-| !!! - The run was suppose to be an interval session of 1km fast with 500m jogs of recovery and it was not at all my full effort 8-| !!! - Just a few days ago, I was reading an article on sub 2hour Half Marathon, and I told myself that this is not going to happen this year 8-| !!! Looks like I underestimates myself so much 8-| !!! Sub 2 hour Half Marathon was such a big deal for me and I really cannot believe myself that I did this even with not at all my full effort 8-| !!! And I am really glad that sub 2 hour Half Marathon happened on my all three running apps 8-| !!! - 2 days of continuous Half Marathon running feels good so far and I am really hoping to break my last year's record of ten consecutive Half Marathon streak runs 8-| !!! - - - - - #mrhappy #universeofmrhappy #marathonmonth #marathontraining #marathoner #marathons #halfmarathonrunner #halfmarathon #halfmarathonchallenge #sub2hrhalfmarathon #endurancetraining #staminafitness #instafitnessmotivation #instafitness #fitnesspakistan #pakistanfitness #marathonstreak #halfmarathonstreak #runningstreak #longdistancerunning #longdistancerunner #runningblogger #fitnessblogger #fitnesslevel #runningprogress (at Shaheed.e.inquilab Ground) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lMqTXDXs6/?igshid=57gysbaepq41

I have never ever been so fresh, energetic, and electrified after any of my half marathon runs and this was quite special maybe cause of the PB/PR 8-| !!! And I have ran several half marathons 8-| !!! - Lets see how far I can take this half marathon run streak and my last record was of 10 days which needs to be broken this very month 8-| !!! - I am currently using three different running apps namely, Strava, Shealth, and Mi Fit 8-| !!! Strava and Mi Fit are on Kilometers while Shealth is on Miles 8-| !!! Getting used to both kilometers and miles units 8-| !!! - - - - - #mrhappy #universeofmrhappy #halfmarathon #halfmarathoner #halfmarathonrunner #halfmarathonrunning #instahalfmarathon #halfmarathonstreak #halfmarathonchallenge #runstreak #runstreak2019 #decembergoals #december2019 #runninggoals #stamina #endurancetraining #fitnessmodel #runningpr #hmpr #hmpb #besthalfmarathon #personalrecord #personalbest #runningrecords #longdistancerunning #longdistancerunner #fitnesspakistan #runningblogger (at Euphoria Park, Gulistan E Johar) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5imSOEjxtt/?igshid=ort00jw4mfh5
