Well fresh off the heels of running my first half-marathon less than a month ago I am pleased to announce today I conquered the Bronx as my second one. This leaves me with Staten Island, Brooklyn and Queens to still go. I have to admit I was much better prepared this time and improved my time from 2:09 to 1:53, of course I didn't have an ounce of alcohol in me last night. I've learned that lesson already. Again the course was very hilly and a lot tougher that I anticipated it would be, but never the less and I am proud of my performance. Gotta go ice my whole body now, later!

Two Down, Three to Go!

way to go man!!! how has the competition been what places have you been taking, out of how many people in attendance?
I don't really jusdge it that way, I am competing more against myself. I would say on average however about 5000 people run and I am usually some where in the middle. The winners usually run the halves in about 1:10.
I gotta tell ya man. ... you're an inspiration to guys like me who want to die after mile 2 .... and that's on the treadmill!
