My thoughts on the 36th annual One America 500 Festival Mini-Marathon in Indianapolis, IN
One America 500 Festival Mini Marathon

My Run: Overall, the One America 500 Festival Mini-Marathon (Mini) in Indianapolis was my eighth half marathon. This was the third year in a row that I have run the Mini, which is the largest half marathon and fifth largest road race in the U.S. with 35,000 runners. The Mini is part of the month-long 500 Festival that leads up to the Indianapolis 500.
My training for the Indy 500 Festival Mini-Marathon this year has been focused on breaking 1:30:00 for the first time. However, just found out today that the first 500 finishers (out of 30,000+) receive a special medal (pictured above). Last year, the time to make the top 500 was 1:28:40. Not sure that I have this in me, or even a 1:30:00 for that matter, but it is very tempting to give it a shot (keeping in mind that the time could be completely different this year). Is this crazy?

Nashville Predators – Highlights from the unbelievable overtime finish to the Preds vs. Ducks game last night. Weber ties it, Smithson wins it!!!
To say that I’ve never been a big fan of Ray Lewis would be a MAJOR understatement. However, I was blown away by this speech he made to the Elon Phoenix football team. Wow! (Note: in the video there is a swear word yelled by one of the players after the speech is over)
