13.1 miles today.

I met my silver goal. The Drake Relays course was a difficult more hilly route than the last half marathon I ran. By mile 10, my legs were shot, and I contemplated pulling off and just walking the rest of the way in. Luckily at that point was the pre-arranged meeting point with Laura. I got a good burst of second wind to run most of the rest of the course to the finish line. I finished in a official time of 1:49:44.
