  • Comments: Fun race! Once again I love 1/2 marathon distance! It's long enough that I don't have to go at lung burning pace of 5K or 10K, and yet short enough that I don't hit the wall or play mental games at mile 20. Just run nice steady tempo pace, and before you know it, you are half way done, and then next thing you know is finish line :) One of these times I need to pick a good couse and focuse on 1/2 marathon training to try to get a decent PR, I think I can do way better. One complaint: No food for vegetarians at the finish line!!! :( Only bratwurst and burgers... Really disappointing, unfair and insulting even! Beer was diluted and nasty! :( So not much for after race ativities...
