Race Results

I’m not a fast runner.  I’m never going to win any races.  But that’s not why I run.

I love to run.  It’s a great stress reliever.  And there is absolutely no better feeling than crossing the finish line of a race.  My favorite race is the Half Marathon.  I completed my 5th and best Half this year.

This is my friend Nanya and I after the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon on 4/1/12.  Time: 2:16:01

ChipStart	2:15	7:32:34		1764/2619	132/212	895/1446

(An entire 5 minutes faster than my last best Half, which was also my flattest Half, and Knoxville is extremely hilly).

My favorite Half so far was the Rock N’ Roll Virginia Beach.  Yes, it’s HOT!  But when you cross the finish line and you’re standing on the beach, it’s sooooo worth it!!  The only other Half I’ve run is the Country Music Marathon in Nashville, TN.  That was fun, but VERY crowded.
