Highlights:
- Getting back down to my racing weight, fastest half marathon in about two years
- Jim and Dori completing the half marathon challenge, Jim unequivocally vowing to run the Empire State Marathon with me in the fall
- Two races means two medals means each kid gets one and no one is forced to experience the indignity of having to share
Low-lights:
- Technically not a half marathon but rather a half marathon challenge made up of a 5K race immediately followed by a 10 mile race
- Those 20 or so minutes between the end of the 5K and the start of the 10 miler kind of cold
Thanks:
- Jim and Dori for braving the wind and cold
- Dave Pugh for motivating me to get back down to my racing weight
- Luke for continuing to participate in any and all post-race celebratory activities
