Post-Typhoon Half Marathon in Aqua Shoes


By 10:00 p.m. the typhoon had gone, and it had stopped raining. The air was cool and the streets were deserted. It was perfect for a night run. My soles were just a little bit sore from a 24 K run yesterday, so I hit the road in a pair of aqua shoes for minimum protection. 

I added two laps of a 650 M quarter-pie-shaped loop to my regular hilly 6 K shuttle course to make a new course that is 7.3 K in total. I ran it three laps tonight to cover half marathon distance. The result is shown below:

1st 7.3 K: 36:38.56
2nd 7.3 K: 36:56.68
3rd 7.3 K: 34:47.53
Total 21.9 K: 1:48:22 

I am glad that I ran the last lap the fastest of all three.
