Disapointed that I didn't break 2h, but pretty pleased regardless with my first 1/2 time. Legs felt great until mile 10 or so. Spent the first 10 chatting with lots of people that I knew from high school, university, and work. I actually knew quite a few people out there. The beer at mile 7 was about the best I've ever had in my life.
By 12 my legs were garbage. I couldn't sprint out the last mile without falling on my arse. At least I was able to run it in all the way.

Find a better pace bunny, or just count on my own watch for timing. Really upset she didn't let us know waaay beforehand that she had fallen behind.

H20 and a popsicle, walked around behind the stadium for a bit. Didn't really stretch, just kept walking.


Ran out of gas at the end. Maybe a power gel or bar or something at about mile 10 would have made a big difference. Maybe not?


Lots of fun and the people were really great there. The shuttle to and from the event could use some work, but otherwise it was really well coordinated. I shall definitely consider doing the full next year.
