Back in September, on September 15, 2019, I ran the NYRR Virtual Halfway There 13. 1 half-marathon (powered by Strava). Full disclosure: I received a free entry from BibRave as a BibRavePro in exchange for my experience/review of the race. My frequent training partner also decided to run it virtually (we both try to run a half every month, schedule permitting). So we were able to coordinate our schedules and run it the same day/time, mostly on the same trail(s). Having travelled to New York in June/July and run there on the Brooklyn Bridge, it was wonderful to be able to coordinate a half-marathon to be run about the same time as others but have the flexibility to choose the course, time and day. And we sought out bridges on our course, trying to simulate some of New York's famous bridges using Nebraska trail bridges. We tracked our run on Strava for the route and distance. The aid stations were sort of inapplicable as we were self-supported (carrying our own water in 2 liter). Starting at sunrise, we took advantage of shade from trees along Rock Island Trail, then I ran east on Billy Wolff Trail and back to Tierra Park, near 27th Street and Highway 2 (Nebraska Highway). It was an excellent training opportunity to prepare for the Good Life Halfsy (the half I'm running this weekend) and allowing for sufficient recovery. Strava says I ran 13. 2 miles in 2:18, averaging 10:26 pace. Not bad. A good effort. A very familiar course. Having this virtual opportunity was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend you try this NYRR virtual racing opportunity along with the others they offer. Thank you! Enjoyed it very much!
