  • Comments: This is the coldest weather I have ever run in. Having lived in Hawaii most of my life, it was kind of bizarre to see icicles on some guys with longish hair, icicles on beanies, and also grabbing frozen cups off tables.

  • Comments: I skipped out on the post-race food. It was just outside the park over on the West side, but my sister's was back on the East side. Without dry clothes, I didn't want to spend more time outside than I had to. But the race itself seemed well organized. Maybe I'll go back and run one with my sister when the weather is a bit nicer.

  • Overall course based on my ability: Too hard

  • Comments: I still had fun here, even found myself talking with some people at around mile 10. I guess I have more cardio in me that I thought. Physically, I need to take better care or risk long term injury again. I'm not in as bad shape as I was for the last 1/2 but certainly need to improve more. I'm anxious to see what happens for the Bronx 1/2, even more for the NYC 1/2 on Aug 5. It can only get better from here. :)
