10 mile run @ 10:30 pace. My shin splints went away after about 6 miles so hopefully I won't have to deal with that during the race on Sunday.

Training during the past two weeks has been less than optimal, but I need to have fresh legs for the race on Sunday so going to skip Friday leg workout.

Half Marathon 2:01

I was almost certain I was on track to break 2 hours but just couldn't hold my pace at the end and got a little overheated. Still a strong effort and I'm happy with the time and keeping most my strength gains.
