Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

Ran about a mile warm up prior to the race, and should have run an extra half mile of warm-up. Ran the Philadelphia Rock 'n Roll Half Marathon in 1:34:47. Placed 738 out of approx 22,000 runners overall and 20 out of 562 in my age group. It was a beautiful morning around 67 degrees with low humidity. The course runs along some very nice parts of the city from the Philadelphia Art Museum to downtown near the Convention Center and then goes north along the Schuylkill River.

Started at the 2514 position and passed around 1,000 runners in the first mile, which caused that mile to be about one minute slower than any of the other mile in the run. Had a strong negative split and ended the race strong, running between 7:05 and 7:10 for each of the last 4 miles.

Ran 3.5 miles in Bernards Township, NJ where I lived until I was 13 years old. Would have run further, but we had a busy day around Liberty Corner and Benardsville, NJ.
