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

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.

Great sign…very motivational!
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?
My feeling is that any day that I am too busy to run is a day that I am too busy.

So proud of Kate for finishing all 26.2 miles of the @RunRocknRoll #CMM Kid’s Marathon, including the last mile tonight. This was her 5th kid’s marathon completed!! Way to go Katerbug!!!

Racing teaches us to challenge ourselves. It teaches us to push beyond where we thought we could go. It helps us to find out what we are made of. This is what we do. This is what it’s all about.

Most mistakes in a race are made in the first two minutes, perhaps in the very first minute.

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)
