congrats! 20 mi of downpour, huh...I think I would have called it a day by mile 10- I am a wimp and I hate running in soggy socks :( Good Job!

I was committed by race morning, after standing in the cold at the start I was finishing that mother by hook or by crook. I've been putting off my biking and swimming for too long. I'm rather excited to get back to the (gasp) trainer and pool. Next up, HIM-Oceanside.

Great job out there! That's awesome that you could bring down your time with the conditions as they were. Just imagine how well you would have done if you weren't avoiding the rivers that were forming on the roadways from all the rain. I could not believe how hard it poured during the event. Congrats and good luck with the HIM training!

Thanks, I'm glad with the time. I'll just have that much better a year next year. I'm pretty pumped my run training is paying off.

2nd marathon PR of the year! 3 months - 10 minutes! At this rate I'll be winning by 2010!
The race included a 45 degree start, 20 miles of down pour, and gusting winds. All in all, it was a great day!
