8 on the 8th Virtual Race Results

Non-Runner Nancy pulled together a virtual race for this weekend, 8 on the 8th. The weather in Richmond was perfect. I headed out at 8 am with an overcast sky, 43°, and 75% humidity -- it was about 46° when I finished.

My goal pace for the race was 7:45-8:00 mpm but I ended up doing 7:42.64 mpm. I ran in Short Pump. Here are my splits

1st mile - 8:06.13
2nd mile - 7:38.13
3rd mile - 8:16.14
4th mile - 7:53.65
5th mile - 7:45.43
6th mile - 7:10.85 (not quite sure how in the world I did this)
7th mile - 7:33.58
8th mile - 7:17
Last 0.2 - 1:34.6
TOTAL
8.202 miles - 1:03:15.48

I'm looking forward to seeing how everybody else did.

Here's hoping everybody else has a good run.

Run well, y'all,
Bob

Great job on your 1:03 finish! And thanks for commenting on my blog. I've added yours to my feed and glad to have found it. That Christmas Lights Run sounds awesome; what a cool idea! I may have to do that some night, but figure out a way to not get hit by the crazies driving around paying more attention to the lights than the road.

Bob - is it okay if I lop off the .2 miles you did at the end? It would post your time around 1:01:41. nonrunner@gmail.com

It doesn't really matter to me, but thought I would ask.

So glad you joined us. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks so much!!!
