Good Life Halfsy: 10th overall 1:12:30. Knew this one wouldnt be as solid as I hoped, but still tried to give it a shot. Faded off the lead pack at 2.5 and did what I could to finish relatively strong from there.

2016 Good Life Halfsy

As planned, I started w/ the 1:35 group, but a potty break @ 3 miles had me settle into my own groove a bit earlier than anticipated.

I had a runner's high, truly, from like 5.7 - 6.5, it was ... zen like.

So awesome to see so, so, so many people; current loggers, former loggers, people I've met only on social media, people I met through #IRun4.

The weather, while great for November in Nebraska, was a bit too warm for my taste.

Last race for 2016. Looking forward to '17 (I move into the Masters category, come 29 June).

Happy Sunday urrbody!

Goal was 1:16. Pretty dang good considering lack of half marathon specific work. Will take it. Had a good pack to run with for 8. Tried to chase for 2-3, struggled last 5k. Hell of an event.

Out hard but under control. Worked with Joe and Chris D early until I pulled ahead. Felt good through about mile 3 then had to reach down for the last 2 miles. 5-0 passing runners after first mile including 2 GLRR. Almost caught Steve H at the end.

7:09, 7:28, 7:36, 7:43, 7:15

Also almost got run over by some idiot cart drivers driving on the course during the race. Just another day out on the XC course...

The Achilles held up but the Usual Suspects felt like I haven't run in a month. The last 5k was brutal. Haven't hurt that bad since NYC last year. Another great race put on by the Pink Gorilla team.

Nice and easy mail run. Breezy. Pretty good weekend. Started with a Hurt's donut, an impromptu tour of Dewitt, two wins to start the season for Preston's team, Dairy Sweet burger for lunch, time with Ross, and supper with the Dudes. Sunday began with the drive to the Halfsy with the Dude, another Hurt's donut, and watching the finish of the race. Good to see lots of friends. Some nice racing on a day that was nice for spectating and a bit tough for racing.

So I had multiple texts from Ben, AND The Navigator as my co-pilot, to keep me in check this year. And I had my Molly. Oh gosh so proud of her, but so torn. I had to pull ahead a bit...I think....ugh. She finished 2:00:01. Complete torture for her. And me. :( Two seconds would have made her year!! UGH! :) Such a great race. I think I was around a lot of fulfilled dreams today. I love this pacing gig. :)

So proud of all my people. Bryan huge PR, The Pastor huge PR. And my Matt huge PR. Mostly my Molly--11 min huge PR. Give or take a second.......;)

So happy about all this...except no PR for me. A tad on the jealous side.

And I felt so at home out there. So many friends on the course. Great day. Just what I needed.:)

So good seeing you all today.. Congrats on awesome races.

This is always a fun race to run and this year I picked up a shiny new PR to go with it! I ran the exact race I wanted to even though at mile 6 I wasn't sure I could hold the pace. Then a funny thing happened as we ended the downhill portion of the course at mile 8. My next two miles were my fastest! I was pretty tired at mile 10 but with a PR in sight and only a 5k to go I knew I could push through it. Great seeing so many people out there this morning, I'll definitely be one of the first to sign up again next year!

First time I ran this race and really liked the course. I am not quite where I want to be, but ran this half 5 minutes faster than the last one, so I am happy about that. Nice seeing so many people I haven't seen in a while!

Nice day for a race. I'm a long way from PR shape but actually felt pretty well considering how training has gone. Good to see some friendly faces out there!

Shout out of the day goes to someone at the LRC water table (mile 12 ish?). "Hey, nice job lake Zorinsky runner!"

Good luck to Halfsy, NYC and other racers!

Happy birthday to my Dad who would have been 88 today. And to Guy Clark who would have been 75 today. Lots to think about during this run, and all good...

Saw Anderson/Rabin/Wakeman band last night at the Chicago Theater for an evening of Yes music and more...exceeded all expectations! (Band: Jon Anderson-vocals; Trevor Rabin-guitar; Rick Wakeman-keyboards; Lou Molino-drums; Lee Pomeroy--bass). Did an official meet and greet pre show, but the kicker was meeting Rick Wakeman earlier in the afternoon at Clark Street Sports. I was getting Cubs championship sweatshirts for a friend at work, and it turns out Rick is a huge Cubs fan, and was in front of me in line! Had a nice visit with him and got a photo--today's mug.

Song of the day: "Perpetual Change" by Yes. One of EVERY song that they nailed last night!
