Phew… what a morning this was.  Up at 6am, very little sleep last night from being anxious and several layers of clothing in the upper 30s we had this morning.  I am overall happy with how I did, but did have to stop a few times the last mile, legs just too tight, cold and cramping.  I will have to run a SUMMER race next time !!  I finished in 2 hrs, 8 min which placed me 539 out of 1144 men and placed 59 out of 242 in my age bracket and had a 9:50 pace.

Thanks for those of you who sponsored me “per mile” and you can multiply that figure by 13 now !!  and can even pay MUSC Children’s Hospital directly HERE.  They have a secure online payment page.
