Last weekend's race:
Capital City half marathon (Columbus, OH), April 18, 2008
Clock: 2:00:22
Chip: 1:59:04
Pace/mile: 9:05
My second best time ever. On the other hand, the Thunder Road 1/2 in Charlotte was my 3rd best time, and was much, much hillier, so that was probably more of an achievement.
The temperature was great – in the 50s – but it was windy as heck. It was a big loop, and yet it felt as if the wind was against us more than half of the time.
The course was great. It went through some of the more interesting parts of Columbus: past shops and coffee houses, into the historic German Village section. Very cool.
It was also a pretty flat course. Central Ohio is pretty flat (although not as flat as Northern Ohio), so it was pretty easy going.
Very enjoyable.

Congratulations! That's a lot of half's! (or is it halves?)
Thanks! And number 10 (Brooklyn) will be in two weeks.
I've been writing "halves" more often than "halfs", but I really have no idea.
