Against all odds, and oh my word were there ever some odds, I took my age group and set a new personal record in the half marathon today--1:45.38. An 8:04 pace. That's down from 1:47.something back in 2007. I'll get a full race report out tonight or tomorrow, and be prepared for it to contain way too much information (if you know what I mean).
Here's picture with some friends from my local running club:
Left to right we have Damien (who also set a PR and took his age group), Anna (paced a friend today), Seth (sat this one out to pace Damien), Me, Jala (that girl ran 1:40 and change and also took her age group), and Darcy, the 5k superstar!
Now you'll have to excuse me while I wear my medal to the grocery store.

I think you should wear your medal everywhere... you earned it! Someday I might be as fast as you are. Maybe. Someday. Or not. I'm so proud of you!
Wow!!! That is awesome, Amy! Congratulations, way to go!
Woohoo Amy...love this photo of you and you friends:))))Blind'em with your bling!!I can just hear it clanging on the handle of the grocery card!
or carT...because that would make more of a clang:)
Well, would ya look at that...
Your upper lip grew back!!!
Congrats on the PR!
Dude. That's amazing. Well done! I would have my medal welded onto the front of my car if I were you. Or maybe surgically attached to your forehead. That is an incredible time!
That's wonderful Amy. I'm all about doing better and beating PR's. BTW you look fab. Very skinny! So proud!!
Wahoo! Great job Amy! I can't wait for your next marathon! I am slowly recovering from a torn ligament and oh boy am I slow. Today's 6 miles took ... well... over an hour. Glad you have a great running group there although I'm sure you miss Sarah's unique conversation starters.
Congrats! Any race w/ an AG award is a GREAT race - no matter what.
Congrats!
nice job, Skinny Pants!
Awesome!!! Can't wait to read the report.
Amy - not only did you totally rock, but you are super skinny!
