The trouble with jogging is that the ice falls out of your glass. ~Martin Mull

(I wanted something zippy for this post title, and definitely found one...)

The three stupids (me, Jen, Craig) ran the Long Beach half-marathon yesterday. We've not trained very hard, so we were all pleasantly surprised at our results. For me, I finished in under 3 hours (2:53 chip time, versus the 3:07 gun time, matching our estimate that we started about fifteen minutes late due to freeway traffic getting there...). That's a happy improvement over my LA full marathon results from March, with much better run-to-walk ratio and better pacing. This was also a mere training run, since I and Craig are stupid enough to wish to run the Las Vegas marathon in December. This is fun, but I might be done with full marathons for a while after that one.

Still, races are a good incentive to actually work out and jog. Fitness good!
