Run with Moshe

As always, a cozy, familiar race start.

In terms of results — overall, as expected and acceptable. Considering the odd training rhythm, the setback with shin splints, and work stress, the season opener turned out just as it logically should.

I had enough strength for about 15 kilometers to hold a steady 4:06–4:09 pace — roughly an hour’s worth of running. Over the last 6 km I faded slightly, finishing in 1:27:38 — about two minutes slower than the same race last year.

By the end of the season, I should be aiming to cut four minutes from this time.
