Helvetia Half 6/11/11


Started the day with a photo with PDX running chicks, some of whom I'll be running Ragnar with next month. Overcast, but perfect running temp. This year, I lined up with the 9 min/mile pacers. It was very exciting to be able to do that and I though about how far I'd come since running Helvetia last year. The gun went off and the race was started! I ran strong the whole way and was able to power up the hills (last year I walked one of them). A great day and an awesome course! I didn't quite break 2 hours like I'd hoped, but was pretty close. Official time: 2:02:48, placed 22/158 (in my age group).
