  • Comments: I love this race. I have done it twice now. Next year if we can afford it, I am flying Rickey out with me, so we can do some site seeing too...Not sure if that will be feasibly possible...but will see. I am happy with my time concidering 3 weeks ago I was hit by a drunk driver and that threw my training off...and the weather in SJ has been and remains to be bad...This saturday rain or shine I am going out running. and Sunday is a bike ride...hopefully it clears up / warms up.

  • Comments: Only issues I saw were the crowd at the start (unavoidable, but might be better to have separate 1/2 and full starts). My wife also had some issues with her chip that she's trying to work out. I don't have a huge frame of reference, but I think it was a very well-run race. I'll definitely do it in the future.
