Wasn't feeling the run at all that morning. So, I'm surprised I ran an under 2 hour half. Nothing really eventful happened.

Event comments:

They ran out of beer. I was really looking forward to a cold beer. Also, the location of this race leads to crappy logistics. I had to take a train and 2 buses to get there. It's not in the most convenient location. Also, the expo was at Navy Pier, ALSO not a convenient place.
