The running gods have answered my prayers! Today I ran the Somerset Stampeed 1/2 Marathon. My time was 2:29:04, which beats my Seattle time by 16 minutes.
The course was extremely challenging, it was like running on the edge of a lasagna noodle, constant steep up's and down's the entire time. The majority of the course was on dirt which was good for my knee, the last 2 miles are basically a trail run through the woods which was a lot of fun. Conditions for this race were perfect, nice cool weather, mostly cloudy, not humid and it rained the night before so the parts of the course that were sand had been packed down.
I am extremely happy with the way this race turned out. I've been having trouble with my training and today gave me the confidence boost I needed to keep my head up and keep hammering towards Chicago.
