AM: Treadmill - 7 miles easy. Did some strides. Core and stretching after.

Got my first complimentary entry confirm this morning for the Unite Half Marathon (Rutgers U Half). I haven't earned it but I am happy to have saved $97. Financial matters have had me trying to really think about where I put my race fees, so this was a nice bonus.

PM: Treadmill - 5 miles

Cool about the comp! You have too earned it!

Let's just say their elite entry is very liberal :-) There are some competitive times in the last few years but that is usually for places 1-3, then places 4-8 drops off into my range. 2012 6 guys were between 1:07-1:12.

That's awesome! Must be a pretty sweet half for $97!
