Rocking the Rock n Roll Half Marathon, Version 2.0



Reppin' Rosenblum


Actually smiled when crossing the finish line, as opposed to last year when I nearly died doing so :)



So, having broken my foot a few months ago, I was a bit leary about running in this year's RnR Half Marathon. Over the past few weeks, once out of my walking cast, I began jogging around town again, trying to get back in shape. I certainly don't feel as in-shape as this time last year, but I somehow managed to accomplish my goal: Beat last year's time (my first half marathon).


Last year, I finished with a time of 1:36:31 and placed 282 out of 15,682 finishers.


This time, I ended up running under a co-worker's name at the last minute, since the race sold out long before race day. Adrienne Rosenblum was my racing alias, and I did her name proud.

Bib # 17362

1:31:47 finish time


174th Overall, out of 17,593 finishers

FIVE minutes faster than last year. Aww yeah.

Congrats Billy! Always running under an alias, and delivering the goods...my dad still brags that I made it to the Runners Mag.
