Mayor's 1/2 Marathon

Last night we had a pre-race spaghetie feed with some friends in preparation for the big race. This morning we woke up at 7am to get ready for the race and saw that it was raining outside...lovely. Actually it didn't rain that much and was perfect temp for running 13.1 miles (which actually turned out to be 13.5 according to my Garmin GPS). Kari kicked butt with a time of 2:20 and I ran a 1:31 (a couple minuites slower than I wanted). I ended up taking 40th overall so not to bad...mile 9 I got a bad cramp in my right calf which slowed me down a little. Prior to this point Kari's farthest run was 10 miles...WAY TO GO KARI. She had a tough few weeks with the 12k, the tri, and the half...time to go camping, fishing, and climbing!
