RnR half

Around 4 seconds faster than last year. New course, cool and rainy run. First 8 were awesome, last 5 kinda hurt.

My feet are a mess with blisters and at mile 9 they hurt along with my butt muscles. I need to find a solution quick for my blisters. I’ve tried all the standard recommend preventive measures and I wear good socks and shoes that fit.

Rumor has it the course was longer than 13.1.  Both my garmin, my Nike+  GPS and Charlie’s Garmin were all off.  Personally, I think it was off.  I had a much better run than last year yet my time was almost identical.

In the end, I did it and that is all that matters.

    Congratulations!!!

    Sometimes courses are long, but it just depends on how they measure them. I know how frustrating it can be, though, to feel like you ran so much better yet had a similar time. But you’re right – you finished and that’s all that matters. Plus, you ran faster (4 seconds is still faster!!) and you said you ran better. So that is improvement right there. 🙂
