  • Comments: These organizers have it down. Excellent water stations and volunteers. The bands at about each mile were fun sometimes, except for the laid back blues guys (I love the blues, but not during a marathon or 1/2). Really good expo and great support. This is my second year doing this race and the 4th 1/2 mary. It is the most supported by volunteers and best organized although America's Finest City takes a close second. I didn't get my official time until Todd (thanks again) found it online and I was pretty happy to know I'm now a sub 2:00 1/2 marathoner. Next goal will be to run it faster, of course. :)

  • Comments: In training for the Oceanside Half Ironman, I planned to do a moderate intensity long ride (41 miles, 2.5 Hours, 130 avg HR) the day before this half marathon. I wanted to get a feel of running on fatigued legs. Next week I am going for a PR (under 1:41, sub 1:40 even better!), at the Surf City Half Marathon.
