First place male finished in 1:3:56(4:52 pace). Ridiculous that he can't even count him time!! He was trying to qualify for the 2012 London Olympics and let's just say he was pretty upset when he broke the tape. According to my husband he didn't want to accept his medal and no one understood why until the other runners came in! When I came in my husband had such a shocked look on his face(it was priceless!!) when he thought I set a 5 minute PR. ummmm...NO..."short course!!"<br /><br />Have a great day!! almost FRIDAY!! :)Pamhttp://aol.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698600978815527980.post-19425715795198216332011-11-15T17:15:42.609-08:002011-11-15T17:15:42.609-08:00Missing mile?

Thanks for taking the time to chat for a little. <br /><br />Hopefully, race directors fix the course and make it a for real 13.1 next year! I felt exactly the way you did...when my garmin beeped at mile 11, I saw mile 12...WHAT??! I've ran courses where they were longer (ahem...LONG BEACH 26.44) but, never shorter. It was still a perfect morning run and I was able to say "hello" to a couple of my fellow ragnar team mates and FINALLY meet you!!<br /><br />Have a good evening. :)Pamhttp://aol.comnoreply@blogger.com
