        Shit... Did I register for Amherstburg again? Me and my pea brain registered for two races last year (Amherstburg being one of them), held on the same day, of course. I lost $75 in registration fees and about $400 in plane tickets. SO wasn't impressed with that one...  Damaris, I am NOT running Amherstburg. Now I'm off to check my inbox to see if I did indeed register for the stupid thing (not that the race is stupid, it's actually quite nice. I'm the stupid one...)

        PRs: Boston Marathon, 3:27, April 15th 2013

                Cornwall Half-Marathon, 1:35, April 27th 2013

        18 marathons, 18 BQs since 2010

          You wanted to wait till next year to do Amherstburg anyway, so I could do it with you.

                  Wo! Freaky! I clicked on a link from LRB and ended up here.

                   

                  September 28th, I'll be running a half during the Montreal Marathon event. Four weeks ahead like that I'd say my objective is to run it sub 1:35. It's going to be the same course as last year, and ran it as my first half marathon on that course in 1:38:47. But I'll make my goal more official a few days before the race, when I'm more sure about the temperature.

                              You can add me--the Bellingham Bay Half Marathon on September 28. Time goal is to beat 1:37, maybe even 1:35.

                                September:

                                09/11 Catwhoorg - Kaiser Permanente 5K

                                09/14 Catwhoorg - Iron Horse 15K

                                 

                                5K in 24:04, was hoping for about 25 min given the course conditions and crowd, but by far exceeded my goal

                                 

                                15K in 1:15:41 Not the PR I was hoping for (a bit over a min off that pace), but my best race of the year by comparison calculators in unusually warm and humid conditions for September. I'll take it.
