My proprietary half marathon formula

  no training
+ poor pacing
+ bad weather
+ blisters
= 3-minute PR

I finished the 2012 Whistlestop Half Marathon in 2:21:32, but it wasn't pretty. Nancy ran with me for this race (considerably prettier), which was fun. Except when I started losing it around mile 9. I started too fast, rookie mistake. The trail was soft, and so were my feet, so blisters. Cold, wet, a bloo bloo bloo.

I'll write more later, probably when photos are up, but it's now time for some BICE*.

*the B is for beer, duh
