If I do say so myself, the Oak Bay half marathon was a smashing success. Last November, I ran 1:36 in the Seattle half marathon so my goal was to beat that. It was perfect weather for a race: cloudy, about 11 degrees and no wind and I felt quite strong the whole way. So everything came together and I somehow managed to run 1:31:10! That put me 39th out of 643 runners overall, 5th out of 365 women and 3rd out of 71 in my division (women aged 25-29). Interestingly, I beat the woman who won the 30-36 age category, which is the group I'll be in next year. We'll see what happens...until then, I'll be relaxing, having a bath and cheering for the Habs!
