CIM race report
I've posted my ridiculously long race report from the California International Marathon (CIM): CIM race report.
Cliff notes version: My chip time was 3:23:31 for a PR of almost 6 minutes. This placed me third in the F50-54 age group out of 269 finishers; I was about a minute behind #2 and a minute ahead of #4, but the AG winner ran an astounding 3:03, completely leaving the rest of us in her dust. I got a pretty wooden plaque as an award.
I kept a fairly consistent pace with only a slight fade near the end, a 1:31 positive split - I probably should have paid more attention to my pace band and slowed my early miles down a bit. But overall I'm really happy as I made my goal and had a generally pleasant race.
