3M Half Marathon

Great weather. Great run. Finished in 1:49:55 (8:23/M pace). Near the end of the race (that is during the last two miles) I felt I could break 1:50 if I kept pushing, so I did, and I did. WOOHOO! I feel quite satisfied with this accomplishment today. The only negative is that I did it alone. Instead I would have liked to have done it with one or more of my running buddies.
