On November 9th I ran The Berkeley Half Marathon after some
off and on illness and it was a total blast! My time was not exceptionally
special (1:44:30), but I did have an amazing time seeing old running friends,
jamming through my old digs in Berkeley (some of my very favorite runs of
all-time), and hitting the pavement for a half-marathon distance. I hadn’t run
a half marathon race since junior year of college, so I was thrilled that
afterward I could still function properly (not the case with marathons).
