2006-OUC-Half-Marathon

Ted, David, Dan, and Jerry

This year’s Orlando half marathon was better and harder than any other I’ve done. It was better than any other because of all the friends I ran it with. There were 7 from Campus Crusade, and our neighbor, too. Training for this race was the best part, as every week I’ve done a long run with a group of guys on Friday mornings before work.

The fun ended in the middle of mile 6. That’s when I knew for sure that I wasn’t in shape to finish the race as fast as I started. By the end of mile 6 I knew that finishing the race at all was going to be a challenge.

I did finish, but with a new slow time; 1:41:11. I’m trying to decide now whether I’m motivated to make that time faster next year or not.
