2007 Harry C. Holland Gutbuster 8mi
Thisentryis part 13 of 13 in the series 2007 RunningOn a warmer-than-average Thanksgiving morning I ran the Gutbuster 8mi. I stumbled in at 1:34:23, exhausted and sore. Man that’s a brutal course, especially when you haven’t had time to train more than once a week. My split was a little more than 43:00, about a […]
My First Hash
Thisentryis part 12 of 13 in the series 2007 RunningOn November 11 I ran my hash, the Pittsburgh Hash House Harriers’ hash #1279 (Hash Veterans Veterans’ Day Hash). It was a fun romp through wooded areas of the West End that was more physically demanding than I’d expected. Photos here.

That’s actually 5 seconds faster than last year’s 54:01, which you might think would make me happy. Well, considering I wanted to beat that time by 4:02, 5 […]
2007 IKEA Half Marathon
Thisentryis part 9 of 13 in the series 2007 RunningYesterday morning I ran the IKEA Half Marathon. It was very humid, which was less than ideal, but between the light drizzle and the temperature being about 20° cooler than last year, the conditions were pretty good. Things got off to a bad start for me, […]
