2025 Brooklyn Half
1:48:55 for this year’s New York Road Runners | @nyrr Brooklyn Half which is very much not my best result on this course but very much the result I deserved, considering the lack of fitness this season.
It’s been a slog the past two months since the NYC Half, which I have little desire to get into here but, suffice to say, running has been very much on the back burner. Still, it was nice to lace up the carbon-plated racers and gut out a result in some warm, humid conditions.
I made the decision a week or so ago that a BQ attempt isn’t in the cards for 2025 - there’s just too much going on in life right now to put in the 4-5 runs/week and the time needed for the mileage to get there. That said, I’m not abandoning the fall marathon season because even mediocre training should still yield a decent result. Or maybe I’m delusional and high on my own supply… only one way to find out!
Also, wanted to share my original caption:
