1:30

There are two things I like most about the World's Fastest Half Marathon: 1) it is in Fontana and 2) they use horrible clip art to promote it. Everything about this race screams mid-90s. Their site is so convoluted that I can't figure out how to register online (and I know 1337 spe4K!111one). So I am using the mail (!) and writing a check (!!).

I may achieve my half-marathon in under 1:30 goal before September--I just have to average a 6:45 pace. The course drops 2,100 feet over 13.1 miles. Awesome. The course record is 59 minutes--4:30 min miles. June 7th. Come run, if you are in the area.

Also, note to H^2 who in my last post told me I that I am an athletic failure in life--drop dead. Now I am going to listen to the Chariots of Fire theme and get that time just to spite you. I am going to carry a picture of you in my back pocket so that I can tear it to pieces when I cross the finish line. And it will be the sweaty back central pocket right above the crack that smells incredibly gross after 13 miles of sweat buildup. That's what I think of that--and you.
