The half went great this morning. Perfect temps. Everyone’s costumes were awesome. Felt strong. Recap coming your way in the morning!
1:23:55.
Hope your Saturday is going awesome! I am having homemade chicken noodle soup (with mashed potatoes on the bottom) in just a few hours, should be a real good time.

You are so amazing! Girl, a 1:23 is insanely fast in ANYTHING, but in pirate’s gear? Fabulous! For awhile my half PR was in costume and it’s the best feeling – like, you managed a PR and looked hilarious doing it. I love it. You make an adorable pirate but I really can’t even wrap my mind around running a 1:23 holding a hook!
Caitlin

Love the costume and congrats on the PR! Did you carry the hook the whole time? It could have been a nifty Gu holder or something, heh.
I have a 5k next weekend that is superhero-themed. I have to figure out what superhero I should be! I hope to PR (always), and it would be fun to do it in costume also!
