Another Half Marathon...and RESULTS!

Ok, I look slightly better than this guy. I signed up for another half marathon. Every time I think to myself, stop being a little *****. And then I end up cursing myself at the 10 mile marker about how bad of an idea it was. Hawaiian shirt over here is smart enough to realize that running a half marathon is a bad freaking idea. I guess it comes down to my belief that having a bad idea is better than having no ideas at all. In any case I'll get another t-shirt, from Oklahoma this time. I guess that's worth it. I mean I am in the Army. I've suffered for much less so I should be overjoyed. And btw, what a great meme, hydration is key to marathon training. I will let you know how it goes. Read more to see how it turned out. Spoiler alert, didn't win.......anything.

THE RESULTS

So it took a couple months for me to post this update but the race did happen and it went better then I had expected. Out of the 429 people who completed the Half Marathon I was able to squeak in at #24 among males and #27 overall, not to shabby. One day I will edge into that top ten. There are some freaks out there that have to ruin it for all the normal people....yes I'm talking about the 6min and below marathon runners out there.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I must say I was pleasantly surprised with the Lawton Half Marathon and would recommend it. The course had a slight uphill to the halfway point and then was downhill on the way back; great for really pushing yourself in the second half.
