Hoosier Half in Bloomington - 8am.  Great fun day with QuaffON guys and gals.  A couple of the guys and I decide to help pace one of the gals.  Perfect for me with her pace at about what I'm expecting MP to be.  Stuck with her through about mile 9 and took it on in at about HMP.  Also had a fun feature in this race - 2 different segments as official Strava mini races within the course.  The first one was at about mile 3 and about 0.25 miles - think I actually took the crown! :)

1:27:19 for official finish time.  WU and CD and jog home made for 20miles total.
