PR Half Marathon! 1:43:47

Mission accomplished! Went sub 4hr for a Full in Napa 5wks ago, and finished sub 1h45min today in Santa Cruz!

All in memory of Dad, in honor of Mom, in memory and honor of many others who have battled cancer and who I have come to know, and thanks to my friends at Team in Training.

Stormy in Santa Cruz, but I was very fortunate to finish just minutes before the rain started.

Very satisfying race. I maintain that the best way to enjoy a Half is to train for a Full!!

What's next for me? Sub 3:45 for a Full (Nike SF in October) and sub 1:40 for a Half (SJ Rock 'n Roll in October). Continued training, a lot of fun runs and further fundraising for cancer research between now and then.
