We left the house early enough to get to the Army Run on time and take our obligatory selfie at the beginning of the race. It was a cool start and as usual we were most likely a little overdressed.

I gave myself the goal of 2:15 and finished 2:14:42.8, so I am happy. Weather was gorgeous, although a little hot. 

Next half is the Hypothermic Half in February.
