Overall, I feel really good about my first half. My goal was 2:17, and came in a hair under, so happy about that. Heard much faster runners say it was the worst half they'd ever done. 7th plac... read more

@Ben: it's the 110. Have had absolutely no time to play around with it, either! Hoping to get to that tonight and set it up for tomorrow.

That's great Shanna. The 110 is a really nice one. It's got all the features you need at this point and I bet will really be useful to you. Don't get too caught up in it, that's easy to do. But certainly enjoy it and log lots of miles with it!

Nice run Shanna. One of the great things about running is discovering all the different and unusual pains you can collect. Hope it clears up soon.

Whole body felt kind of tense/wonky for the first mile, but loosened up after. Kept a pretty consistent pace of 10:00-10:17 after a slow first mile warm up (10:34). This run was all about products.... read more
