Stumbling to the buffet line.

not enough long runs and not enough taper.

no time for warm-up. :(

Event comments:

It was a bloody cold day, but thankfully almost no wind. My goal was 2:30, so I am somewhat disappointed with my time. However, I am happy that I took off almost 10% from my time for my last 1/2 marathon. I should do better on the Police 1/2 on April 30.
