Good Luck Ewth8tr!
Seems like only yesterday he was asking me for shoe advice, and now he's running his first half marathon. They grow up so fast!
Good luck with the Provo River 1/2 tomorrow! FWIW...here's my result from last year. My 1/2 marathon PR: Place Bib Name City State Age Time Mile Pace 36 590 Shane B Riverton UT 34 01:44:35 07:59 |

Thanks...I was proud of that race. One of my big goals, a 1:45 half, was achieved that day. Of course, it helped that a good part of the course is downhill.

My sister-in-law qualified for the Boston Marathon during her first marathon and won a cash prize.
She's the least likely athlete ever. I'd never seen her do anything remotely physical/athletic. So come on guys, buck up! |

I figure every 2-3 hour run I will get passed by 2-3 people, and I'll pass 20-25. That's good enough for me. |

Well, I am sore as hell and I was having some trouble with my right hamstring cramping up a little, but I finished in 2:14:10. Not too bad considering I had never even run a continuous mile in my life until last April (I'm 27)

Congrats h8r, I'm jealous of you young guys and how you can hold up to the mileage. It seems I'm constantly packed in ice.
