  • Vlog #181: A hot day above 70 in the morning, heavy fog/humidity in the air. One of the more unique feeling weather conditions I've raced in. It definitely took its toll, knocking me down over 10lbs in 2 hours even with water and gatorade on the course. Happy with the results all things considered, all I wanted out of today was to go hard.

    Congrats Christian! Got a personal best today even though it was brutal. Finished 1:36:50 and probably my hardest effort I’ve ever experienced in the last mile.

    Great job Christian. I had some struggles in that heat, but I remember what you said about getting some shade while running on Ocean Parkway. It helped a bit as everyone was on one side of the street. This was my first Brooklyn Half, and was one of the better courses I've ran.

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +1

      Oh great I'm glad that worked! I have no idea why they don't put the water on the East side of the road. The sun always rises there so that's where the shade ends up. Same issue every year lol. Congrats!

    Great video. Ran wave 2, felt totally exhausted by mile 10 as if I would not have been training. Think that the rapid shift from 40-50s for majority of the last months to today was just too much... Incredible tragedy that we lost a running friend today...

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +2

      So sad! I have a hard time in heat as well, same feeling toward the late miles for me as I lost more and more fluids. Just a tough battle today where we all needed to be careful. Congratulations on finishing!

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +1

      Same! Not a PR type of day but for anyone who did, you definitely made big strides in training and should be proud! Those people are due for another PR in better weather no question.

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +1

      Oh wow! I regret wetting myself so much with the water stations and sprayer since I think all the liquid ended up in my shoes and caused mine lol. I'm not sure if it helped or hurt more lol

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +5

      Thanks Raymond, it is very sad. I was shocked it was a "Green" or no hazard flag all race. It was in the 70s but so humid. 18 others went to the hospital I believe, just a rough day if you were not consciously drinking at every station.

    wave 2 was brutal! it was hot and humid.. the key was to keep drinking all the water and Gatorade and drenching myself at every sprinkler/open hose en route.

    • @lrojas
      @lrojas 2 роки тому

      Agree! I was also fortunate that there was a bystander/viewer at mile 10 giving out ice-cold Gatorade from his cooler... made a HUGE difference!

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  2 роки тому +1

      Yea a day like today really needs to be about taking in a lot of fluid. I think it goes to show what happens if you don't with as many medical issues as there were today.

    • @DWNY358
      @DWNY358 2 роки тому +1

      Plus few of us were acclimated to the heat. It must have been brutal for the Wave 2 runners who had the sun beating down and out running longer on average. I was fortunate to be done before 9am.

    How’d they get the bus?

    • @ChristianRunsNY
      @ChristianRunsNY  Рік тому +1

      We hired a bus ourselves. Paid for it from the club and then each member chipped in like $20 a seat to pay for it. I’m not sure which company it was
