Personal:

I was born in Moscow, Russia in '68, where I started running sprint events in '83. I moved to the US (NYC area) in '91 and didn't run again till '96 when I discovered road racing scene. I was hooked after my first 5K race. I had another break in running from '01-'04 and decided to seriously get back into it in August of '05. I'm married and have 16 year old daughter. I have moved to London in August '06, will probably stay here for a few years.

This was 20K, not half marathon (no entry for 20K in this log). I felt great and had a very good race, my winter training definitely paid off. Mile markers were all screwed up, so they were useless, I ran by feel. First 5K was 24:51, 10K was 49:10. That makes last 10K 46:24. This is a new PR by a minute. My last PR was set on the same course in 1998! It's nice to know that even though I'm 8 years older, I can still set PRs.

I'm really enjoying warmer weather with no wind! Mid 40s feels warm now.
