Event comments:

I wanted to prove something after a sub-par performance on the half marathon of the Pigman half. I was very happy to hit a sub-7:30 pace for the 13.1 miles. Thought I wanted to go faster, but I'm really happy with the the time.

Wow!  An 1:37:50 half marathon.  That's smokin'!  My wife considered doing the full in Des Moines but opted for the Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, MN.  We've heard that the Des Moines marathon is a great race.
