The best part of this race was getting to run with DM friend Krista C. and meeting @David F, @Ken W, and @Kelly L, then enjoying a nice post-race brunch with Kelly and her DM friends. Started out a little fast, especially with the interrupted training due to the calf. I managed to hang with Krista for the first nine miles before dropping back - I felt like dropping back after the 10K mark, but Krista did a great job urging me along. I walked more than ran the last 4 miles, but did run hard the last mile to the finish. The calf is sore and stiff, but I have a one hour massage later this afternoon. Hoping that PT the next two weeks will help me get over the hump since the big race (Chicago Marathon) is 11 weeks away.
Great work getting it done despite the calf problems. Congrats!

Frank- you did awesome! I loved running with you! I am jealous that you guys all went out to eat! Too bad Linda wasn't feeling well- would have loved to hang with you guys for a bit. You did great considering your calf is not totally healed... I am a pretty good "pusher" but I could tell by mile 9 that you wanted me to go... awesome race- keep the eye on the big picture... 11 weeks!

Great job, Frank!! I know you're nursing an injury and it was smart to slow it down a little, although you still came in with a pretty solid time. (I think it's neat that we both ran halves today in about the same time - yay!) Also very cool to meet some other DM friends :)
