What an Awesome Weekend! I had a great time with all the Bloggers over at our place Friday night - once again thanks to everyone that participated and help out Kendra. I think we ended up with about 50 people.

Anyways on to the race - I decided, since I'm not in race shape right now I would find more enjoyment pacing Mike Warren. He's improved so much I was excited to see him get a PR - and PR he did! Mike, I hope a wasn't too obnoxious there at the end. Here's a link to Mikes Blog for the Painter Half.

We ended up running a 1:29 and with about 100 M to go Mike takes off and shifts gears like an Indy Car and drops me bad. Fun times! Great Day!
