This was Dave’s first half-marathon, with the goal of running the distance in two hours or less.
The race organizers provided pacesetters, so Dave began his half-marathon staying with the 2:00 hour pacesetter.

About halfway through the race, he picked up his pace, running the race in 1:55.20.
Finish Line

Sitting on his tailgate at the end of the race.
Mission Accomplished.
Shoes on pavement,
a metronome of doubt.
Still, the body insists—
one more mile
into light.
I created the blog posting using the photos Dave provided. I was only there vicariously.

AFTER THOUGHT
The friend who asked Dave to run the half-marathon with him didn’t show up.
