| The Hollywood Half Marathon was a very tough thing due to what happened the night before the race where we got the van towed away from where we had parked it when we went to dinner. Then we used the money that saved for the hotel to pay for the van's return with all of our stuff for the race. We slept at a friend of my friends home went to bed around 2AM and got up at around 4AM since the race began at 6AM and the roads would be closed and we couldn't get to the race. I was number 1563 and finished in 2:23:10. I was just so mentally worn out I struggled more than I should have. Next time I run this I will drive myself there to run it. My pace wasn't too bad since I ran it at 11:37 pace. I was number 2062 of the finishers, my friends I went with were over 3 hours, so I had to wait for them. I was so tired I just wanted to leave them but did not drive so that was not possible. |
This was before the race, when I was still awake
They sent me this after the results were in. At least I did not give up and just walk the whole thing.
