Race: High Speed Pursuit (13.1 Miles) 01:32:53, Place overall: 13, Place in age division: 1

Haven't run a half marathon in over a year, so this was good. My PR is 1:28 and change, so that was my goal. I think I might have come close to that if this was a flat course. But, this wasn't a flat course. I held my pace pretty good for about half of the race then there was a long gradual uphill stretch followed by a steep hill about a half-mile before the finish line.

I won my age group and was the fastest person over 40 in the race, so that felt good. And I won a pair of shoes in the drawing, so it was a good day.
