Comments: Always a well-done event. Finished the 5-year medal series this time, completing the "star". Even though I was notable slower than last year's PR, I ran a really good race for my fitness level.

Comments: Another great year for the Cowtown half marathon! I finished my medal series! Woo-Hoo! Lots of friendly volunteers to help out, and having an aid station close to every mile on the course was nice. My only "needs improvement" would be the after race shirt pick-up. The line was OUTRAGEOUS. They had it right last year, and there weren't any lines. This year, they funneled everyone down to a small table for their race distance (half marathon, marathon, ultra). Which meant the 2:30-3:00 finishers for the half marathon stood in a very long, slow moving line. Oh well, the shirt was well worth the wait! I also got a cool bag because it was my 5th year in a row!
