Frank, sorry you missed your BQ by 15 secs. why the heck did you wait for the porta. You should have ran into the bushes like all the men were doing.

I ran the Half Marathon! It was my first. Looking forward to doing the full marathon next year. Do you have any idea when the race photos for each person will be up? I was so excited going across the finish. Yay for medals!
