aka my 2009 Quad Cities Half Marathon report

The quote comes from the starter's pre-race comments to the runners just before the starter's gun went off.  It really was a day of no excuses.  Things like my wife getting stuck in traffic or no electrolytes after mile 4 did not deter me from besting my personal "gold medal" goal of 1:55:00.  It wasn't a Personal Record and even was my third slowest half ever ran, but given my life and work lately, I personally kicked butt Sunday.

Time to rest for a week, and start prepping for my next half marathon -- Des Moines Half Marathon - Oct 18, 2009.
