Ran there, Rode that!
Another fun year down visiting Carowinds amusement park. Half Marathon and roller coasters, what could be better than that?
My time goal was hard to achieve because it was like a million degrees on race morning. Plus two million percent humidity. Just rough. Not enough water on the course, and although the course was still not measured correctly, it was better than last years fiasco.
The real kicker this year? The timing chips were all defective. For all races. The 5k, 10k and Half. They had to rely on runner help for times, and some shotty backup camera. Hilarious.
My time was 1:53:50, or so they say. Who knows. My garmin came in lower, the course was about a quarter of a mile long. Short? What ever. It was fun. I’m over obsessing about my times most days, so at least it was fun. And look at the medal!
Charlie Brown riding a roller coaster? Oh, hell yes!
That sounds like a cool race!
