Long Beach Half Marathon

This race was crowded.

I personally did good until about mile 8 - then it was kind of downhill from there.

Between the 75 miles on the bike the day before - waking up with sore legs - I did not expect anything out of this race except a training day. And it was a good tough training day! So, mission accomplished for me!

It was a great course if the crowds had been a bit less.

I too was in pot-o-potty limbo and got off a wave late - Bob got off 2 waves late and Bill was 3 waves back.

Had we been in the correct wave it might have been a little less of a climb over the sea of people.


11078 Lynda Neuman F 55-59
Half Marathon Start: Gun 6:59:45 Chip 7:08:04
Splits: 10 Km Finish O'All Sex Div

I would do this race again. However - I would be much more attentive to getting in the correct wave start!
