I completed my second Half Marathon this morning. Thanks to Liz, my own personal pace bunny (she even wore pink!), I ended up finishing a bit faster than the River Run. 39 seconds faster, to be exact...so I gained 3 seconds per mile, and this time the course wasn't all downhill. Pretty cool, I think. I ended up with a time of 1:54:06 by their clock, and 1:53:55 by my watch (there weren't any chips, so I just started my watch a bit before we crossed the starting line). So, 8:42/m, or thereabouts! I'm happy with it; I would have been happy to just beat 2 hours since I haven't really been doing any kind of distance running lately.
I have SO many pictures to post...more of my bike and some more happy birthday pictures...but it'll have to wait because I need to teach soon.
