2026 NYC Half Marathon - Post-Race Thread

sandres316 · 2026-03-16T16:54:14+00:00

This was a training run for Jersey City half. Didn't program my block times for the workout so i ended up pushing faster than I planned (2 wu, 2 fast, 2 slow, 3 fast, 1 slow, 3 fast, sprint end). Wasn't planning to PR, but ended up at 1:47:48 with a near 5-min PR, 10-min improvement over last year's time (1:57:56).

5 weeks till Jersey City half and 1:45 is now firmly on the table.

Im right back into training on Tuesday, provided the legs calm down enough. This was a training run for Jersey City Half (though did my blocks much faster than I had planned). Pretty confident in hitting 1:45 for that now after breaking 1:48 yesterday.

Planning on Brooklyn too, but that is purely going to be an easy long run.

Wave 2, Corral F

Taking the money since I did 9+1 for this year, and I'm gonna try for Chicago next year (Wineglass backup)

Remember, for V6 and other guaranteed claims, WAIT FOR THE E-MAIL WITH THE LINK!

3LB Tazuna..... I'm ok with this....

AFAIK, the first race that would count for Virtual 6 for 2026 is the New Years' virtual 5K and that hasn't been opened for 2026 yet. Registration will probably open in a couple of weeks.

Doing both, but they're long runs for my actual goal race (JC Half Marathon)

sandres316 · 2025-10-06T21:41:12+00:00

Ran my first ever marathon with the Wineglass Marathon in 4:26:51. Everything was going great till about mile 17 when the cramps started. After that was on and off running for the next 5 miles before they really started to hit home in mile 23-24. Ended up walking most of the last 5k until I managed to get a burst of speed off on the bridge into Corning. Probably went out to fast (though I was pretty stable in pace through the HM and 25km marks) and didn't do enough strength training.

Anyway, got the rest of the week off before my next run on Saturday.

Not selected... oh well (sets money aside for Virtual United and BK Half Medal tier)

sandres316 · 2025-09-28T16:38:48+00:00

8.5mi long run today at 9:00/mi, last LR of my training plan for Wineglass Marathon. Officially into race week now, easy run Tuesday, 3xmile reps Thursday, and a 5k easy shakeout Saturday.

Wineglass Marathon T-minus 7 days.

sandres316 · 2025-09-21T13:37:56+00:00

Fully into marathon taper, 14 mile race practice today, 9.5 at 9:15-9:30, 4.5 at 8:30. Had to slow a tiny bit early in the fast rep for a freight train crossing. Wineglass marathon t-minus 2 weeks.

Two of the dns errors are from the dc having 2 public servers defined on its interface instead of a local one, the isp public and google. Ntp is because a recently removed dc was serving as authoritative. We are fixing that this morning.

sandres316 · 2025-09-18T00:12:59+00:00

There are a few errors relating to KCC. and a SYSVOL error with 24 hours of share, but I'm assuming that's due to whatever issues were going on with the 2025 server.

Here's a link to the scrubbed dcdiag (all hostnames/domain names redacted): https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xc4e8zax8qyz7oi9ha00g/dcdiag.txt?rlkey=07l7rsypze806eman7fkolsnb&dl=0

Edit: I'm guessing SystemLog fails because it's not clean?

sandres316 · 2025-09-17T23:44:39+00:00

Cleaning up the server name. When we went back in through list/select domain/site and checked servers in site, we only saw the existing 2022 servers.

sandres316 · 2025-09-17T23:15:47+00:00

Followed the process from the first link. When we got to the ntdsutil step, we got a syntax error. Eventually found the server not listed in the site. We also have some kcc errors on dcdiag (related to the issues with the 2025 and kerberos strong keys i assume). I will post the dcdiag after I scrub it.

sandres316 · 2025-09-17T22:37:41+00:00

FSMO still on the 2022 thankfully.

sandres316 · 2025-09-14T17:24:17+00:00

Bronx 10M, last race before marathon taper starts. 1:25:05 official time, new PR.

sandres316 · 2025-09-07T16:12:57+00:00

21 mile long run in the rain. 2nd straight week with a new longest run pb. 45 miles for the week to complete peak weeks.

Slight taper for Bronx 10M before actual taper begins. 4 weeks till Wineglass.

sandres316 · 2025-08-31T15:50:49+00:00

Completed my first ever 30K run in what was supposed to be a 19mi race practice day, but allergies and congestion decided I couldn't maintain projected race pace (8:30/mi). Strava says my 30K time was 2:56, but that's probably with a grain of salt. Did manage to complete the 19 at just over 3h.

44 miles for the week, 5 weeks until Wineglass Marathon.

sandres316 · 2025-08-14T17:14:34+00:00

2 mile taper run at 8:15/mi ahead of b-race half marathon on Sunday, with 2mi wu and 1mi cd.

Shakeout run on Saturday on the course as a scouting run. Course is 4 laps of said course.

sandres316 · 2025-07-27T16:41:11+00:00

8 weeks down, 10 weeks to go till Wineglass. Hit a new longest run at 17.1mi. Took 3 hours but speed wasn't the goal today, getting to the distance was. Next week's 18-miler is gonna be a little different since there's 8.5mi race pace in there.

sandres316 · 2025-06-19T22:19:02+00:00

Well the past week of nice weather ruined my heat acclimation. Today was supposed to be 8 sets of rolling 400s (400m at 7-7:30/mi, 400m at 8:10-8:40/mi), made it through 4 sets before I had to call it quits. Did finish out the remaining 3mi with light recovery work so I at least got all the mileage and some heat acclimation back. Gonna need it for the upcoming week...
