Ya'll are probably going to jump on me for posting this but I ran in my first half-marathon (13.1 mi.) last weekend in Virginia Beach, VA. Finished 12,642 out of 22,000+. Not great but I didn't walk or die and at 63, I was pretty lucky. (2 Hrs. 53 Mins. 40 Secs.) I did look at a trawler for sale.

Thanks guys, I didn't start running (it's more like a controlled fall) until I was 62. I'm really slow but my MD says it's helping. While on my five day trip down the TN last month, it was difficult to keep up the training, maybe I can find a place for a stationary bike... not. Note: the winner from Kenya ran the 13.1 in 1 hr. 1 min.
