So, I got 1075th place. Sounds really bad when I’m used to racing against 50-100 people tops, but there were actually 1799 runners, so it’s actually decent. And better yet, I met my goal! The goal was to run the half marathon in two and a half hours or less, and I did it in two hours and twenty minutes! And look at the super snazzy swag I got – fancy and actually heavy medal, plus a moisture-wicking t-shirt. Not to mention the strawberry shortcake and hot dog at the end of the race. I spent $74.80, but what with the swag and the experience, totally worth it.
