Well I finished...
My clock said 5:22, the email updates (with splits)from the race all were longer than what I tracked.  It had me finishing in 5:36.

Either way, I finished, and am already thinking about how to improve for the next one (Maybe Az RnR in January).

My legs are thrashed.  I felt great and was having a blast until about mile 10.  Then I started slowing.  At mile 22 my right knee felt real bad.  I limped the last 4 miles, but it was incredible to turn the last corner and see the finish line.  I had a wonderful time out there (despite how my legs feel).

Woohoo!  Congrats on the first mary.  It was beautiful day for a run in Chicago.

The email/alert times are not the chip time, that's the overall clock time, so you were faster than the alert finish says.

Way to go, Dan! That is a somewhat sparse race report... but I'll give you a break! After all, you did work a bit today. (o;

Here's to a couple of days off!! Great times, and a true accomplishment.

Take care of yourself,

Dana
