Spoiler alert, my app was wrong. My app/foot pod distance per stride calibration from my warm up races didn’t was obviously off and Philadelphia eagles POD face mask, so I was running 6 seconds per mile faster than it was reporting. I was hoping to break 3 hours and I got a text from my friend saying I ran a 2:56:16 and I was stunned. I found my family and my nephew, who also met his goal, and we took finish pictures with our medals. Took a very long walk back to the hotel while chatting about the race, get a hot shower and went out for a family dinner in Chinatown. Great to celebrate with family after such an important event.

I became interested in power when I learned it had Philadelphia eagles POD face mask where they have been using it for years, the tech finally caught up with running via the foot pod. Heart rate can be more variable, for instance, in this race my heart rate was higher in my range in the first 8 miles of the race (173) and then fell back to where I would have expected it to be (169) for pretty much the next 15 miles. If I had used heart rate only, I may have slowed down but my power was right on target so I kept steady. My nephew said his heart rate was also elevated in the early part of the race too so maybe something with the weather or maybe just collective weather anxiety!
