Rock N Roll Los Angeles half Marathon

This morning I woke up before 5am to get on the road 2 hours before the RnR Halloween half Marathon in LA. Los Angeles is about 50 miles north of me so I figured a hour to drive there as well as an hour to park/get to the start.

I flew down the freeway up until I got to the exit for the race. Then, stuff got crazy. short story: I sat on the freeway off ramp bridge for 45 minutes inching along. Lesson: This is why you get married or get a buddy so somebody can drive you as well as you can jump out of the vehicle as well as walk to the start.

By some Christmas Halloween miracle I got there, discovered a car parking spot, hit the bathroom as well as was able to walk into Corral 5 to run.

The race started / completed at LA online as well as the essential center area. thinking about these locations are designed to hold huge crowds I believed the freeway dilemma was odd.

I wished to take it simple on this race, however I don’t trust myself to run smart. luckily (??) my ipod wasn’t working so I didn’t have music to pump me up. Thus, I ran conservatively.

Also I broke Race rule #1 – Don’t try anything new on race day.

I have Camiseta Schalke 04 been thinking about using compression socks for the ING NY Marathon, however I’ve never really used them to run (only for recovery). So I tried it today! I know, I online on the edge. (I’ll share my thoughts on this soon.)

Since I was trying to enjoy the race I decided to bust out my phone at mile 9 as well as take some pictures. I never do this!!! Wow – I’m truly feeling fiesty today!

I completed in under 2 hours, I want to state 1:57 ish as well as felt great! At mile 12.2 I realized, “Hey, you have your phone so you might utilize that for music genius!” I listened to 2 tunes as well as then the race was over.

As Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Bélgica soon as I crossed the surface line I headed to the chocolate Milk booth for some refreshments. For some reason chilly chocolate milk is 10x more tasty after a run. inspect out team Refuel for more information.

Then, I satisfied a few visitors – Hi Monica as well as Ann! as well as headed to the VIP tent. (I scored a VIP wristband from ING.)

It’s quite wonderful – they have food, beer as well as champagne as well as tables for people to relax as well as hang.

I circled the food table admiring all the goodies before digging in…

I satisfied up with my #INGClassof2012 partners in criminal offense Dave as well as Steve there!

I got a waffle, fruit with some granola, an egg burrito as well as that amazing Pumpkin Cookie. Unfortunately, I wasn’t feeling the burrito as well as only took a bite of the cookie, however failed to remember about it when I went to the watch the concert.

See? We watched the post-race show from backstage.

The fun thing about this race is it’s right before Halloween as well as so many people dressed up! There was a costume contest at the end as well as I got a couple of fantastic shots of the top contenders. (A visitor was in this contest – please let me understand who you are!)

I have to provide a huge shout out to RnR for working with the ASPCA as Camiseta Athletic Bilbao well as motivating pet adoptions. They had puppies as well as an adoption drive at the surface line festival!

It was fun to hang out with my NY marathon guys today! We’ll all be satisfying up once again in new York in less than a week! Crazy.

After the race I headed to my mom’s (who lives a great deal better to LA) for a visit. But, I made a bit stop at my preferred old nail location first. It’s been as well long!

And my success dance… cereal as well as watermelon. yes buddy.

Now it’s just a huge ol’ countdown till new York. Time to rest, carb tons as well as hope Sandy is long gone before I get there!

Question: If you were going to gown up for a race – what would you be?

I would be a turtle so I might take my time.
