Let's ROCK N ROLL!

It's 3:10am.

I'm up.

I'm getting ready.

LET'S ROCK THIS THING!!!!!

MAIN STREET....er....the ROCK N' ROLL HALF MARATHON AWAITS!

1:06pm - Hi everyone! Runny Bunny here!

I didn't get to go to the race, but I'm proud to tell you that Jonathan FINISHED the race! It took him longer than he'd have liked (3:51:33) - but he finished. There were some hills that he said really threw him - and something about a tunnel. He says he'll update everyone tomorrow fully.

He did have one VERY important message he wanted to put here. He's pretty sure Dana and her Husband saw him cross the finish line with tears in his eyes. They cheered and he saw them with red micky-ish shirts on. After the race, he went to the meeting place to try to find them - and looked for about 10 minutes, but couldn't find them - and feels awful. Amber had arrived to pick him up and he had to leave. It meant the world to him that they came out to see him finish. He'll tell you more tomorrow I'm sure.

Meanwhile - he's showering and then he's earned a pasta dinner. :)

Congratulations Jonathan!

I loved following this event online. Live webcam of both the half and full marathon finish lines. Live sportscast of the elite marathoners. This event was cool from home. I can only imagine being there in person.

Please post a pic of your new medal!

See you at the next starting line.

WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!! Go Jonathan! I am so proud of you. There's nothing wrong with that time - you finshed and it was just a warm up for the DL Half anyway....And be glad the only hills you'll deal with at DL is on ramps!

Hope you had a great pasta dinner. Can't wait to hear more about your experience.
