Not a bad run this weekend. Finished in the top 1/4 of all runners in the Rock 'n roll Half Marathon this weekend in Va Beach. Could have done better had I actually warmed up. Was sure it was an 8 am gun. Got off the shuttle right at 7 and heard the guns. My wave was already gone. I was in the 5th wave, ended leaving in the 12th (and with no warm up). I think I was overconfident b/c I was passing people the whole race. I was gunning for about 1:55, so I am not upset but would like to have done better. 

I have video on my Facebook page if anyone is interested.

Overall: 3,271 out of 14,767 · Division M 30-39: 373 out of 990 · Gender: 2,262 out of 6,387 Finished In:01:57:57



I had weight loss surgery. I did it the easy way.

that sucks about the gun, sounds like when you are in school and show up for a class and didn't realize there was a test that day.  great job on race, and awesome time!
Where are we going??  And why am I in this handbasket??

right now.  somewhere.  somebody is working harder than you.
