Good job! 1:44 is quite respectable for a stand alone, especially your first.

1:44 for a half? Your first? So on your first try you qualified for a seeded start corral at Chicago. Yes, you suck. :)

Yeah sooner...you're right! That 1:44 would get him in corral "A" at Disney.

Cayman-
Yeah I couldn't miss that Vegas trip it was a bachelor party for a great friend.
Anton- Thanks for the congrats. I am not sure what an corral "A" at Disney means??
TriSooner- What does a seeded start at Chicago mean? Chicago Marathon? When is that? BTW good luck on your Ironman @ Germany (That sounds cool as hell)
Thanks for the reply; it seems as though you guys know much more than me regardling qualifiying/races.
The run was from the Seaport District to Harvard then back. This was the 1st time I ever ran a Half Marathon let alone 13.1 miles at once. The farthest I ran before this was 7.7 miles on a hot day.
Total Time: 1:44:48 (Not sure if that is good or bad)
I will put up a race report.
