🌹 Rose Bowl Half Recap🌹
Pasadena’s Rose Bowl Half is the official Half leading up to the LA Marathon. On January 22nd, I ran in this half. And, OBVIOUSLY, I set out for a PR and a sub-2, or 9:09/mile goal. Finished 2:01:05, which was a PR by 10+ minutes.
Afterthoughts about the race are as follows.

“Do it for the views...” Can I admit here that I’m a little less than stoked to be running Griffith Resolution in January, just as I blow out my birthday candles? I’m a little mad at myself for signing up for this punishing race again. It’s like giving myself a lump of coal for Christmas.
