Chicago Rock & Roll Half Marathon

August 2 was the inaugural Chicago Rock & Roll Half Marathon. I must say it was an excellent event. Great race, weather, crowds & bands. I was hoping for a solid race pace of just under an 8:00 mile. I felt pretty good, but ended up a little behind my goal and ended up doing exactly an 8:00 mile. It's all good, keeping my eye on the prize, the Chicago Marathon in October. My wife & sister-in-law also ran the race and did great! I am very proud of them for setting their goal and flowing it through. Great job ladies!
