Half Marathon #79: Rutgers Unite Half Marathon

Rutgers Unite Half MarathonNew Brunswick, NJApril 14, 20192:27:59 Temp: mid 50sWhat I wore: hat, tank top, Skirt Sports Lotta Breeze Skirt, ProCompression socks, and Altra One 2.5  Beer Geek and I both signed up to run this race.

Clinton, NJ is a four hour drive and the race was on a Saturday, so it was my "last ditch" option to get in a New Jersey race this spring. I had mixed feelings when I decided that I needed to do this race. After all, I love Mainly Marathons, but the logistics were a bit daunting. But, I committed, and I did it. Friday was a rainy day here. I made a rookie mistake and waited until after my kids came home from school to leave … [Read more...]
