13.1 mile race. First half marathon, time just over 2:12:00. Was a pretty hilly course so while a sub 10:00 pace would have been great I'm not complaining about the time. Too tired for anything else.

Thanks everyone...nice to see when the training pays off.

Was talking to my instructor after last night's class and he knew someone who went to class later in the day after running the Boston Marathon. Some might say dedication but I think it's a bit crazy...
