    Hi all,

     This week in sin city, I ran the half marathon, with a PR of 2:45:45.  Since I'm a slow runner, this is a really good time for me.  I've never run 13 miles in under 3 hours before.

     It was cool but not windy.  The fireworks at the beginning were great as we ran down the Strip.  The running Elvi were interesting as were any number of costumed people.  I congratulated a few couples who were planning to get married at mile 5.

     After the race, we were able to go outlet shopping and see a show in the evening.  A good night's rest and my legs were fine.

    Congratulations Wing! (and Jesse)  Way to get that new PR. is'nt the Half just so much more sane then the Marathon?  That's just me talking myself out of the distance.  It has been great to see you begin running just a few years ago, do your first marathon and now getting faster and faster.  keep it up I'm proud of you.  oh btw you must have some cool/interesting Vegas/running/race picture you can share w/me. please.

    as for me Tuesday: easy run 5.4 mi, Wed, Tempo run 4 mi.

    preping for the RB Half on Saturday.

    Marvin, yes, a half is saner than the full.  You run, but you are still okay afterwards.  I'm not good at posting pictures.  Tammy has pictures and a video clip on her facebook of our trip and the half.
