Nice job! I'm glad you got a good race under your belt after the not-so-great time you had at the wine-and-dine. I hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation.

GReat report & pictures! Man, I can't believe it was that warm even before daybreak! Good for you for not overdoing this race, and still making a PR! Love how you then went and ran with your DD in your street clothes! Congratulations for both races!
Hope you have a great vacation and good luck at the Surf City HM. It's wonderful how you're such an encouragement for the rest of your family!

Congratulations on the PR, you did great! The fact that you treated this event more like a training run, in order to save your energy for your family vacation, and still managed to PR big... wow! It shows how much you have improved your fitness. WTG! Great pictures of you and of the event and the pics of you and your daughter are adorable! Congratulations to your little princess as well and thank you for sharing!

Congrats on the PR and great report with photos. It sounds like you had a wonderful time with your daughter's race (even if you weren't dressed for it) and take time to enjoy the rest of your vacation!
Train smart ... race smarter.
Congrats. Love the photo of you and your daughter with medals after her race. Funny you had a surprise run.
Congrats on the PR. And how the hell are we in the Pacebook group picture and WE DIDN'T TALK TO EACH OTHER??????
I'm there! In the middle! With the HF hat and top!
Sorry I did not get to talk to you, but we've met before and hopefully will meet again when you come down here (or in another Disney race - I am looking at the Tower of Terror 10 miler!)
Awesome job and congrats again!

Take Charge. Train Harder. Suck Less. No Excuses.
Congrats on a great family vacation. Oh, yeah, and hitting your goal of even pacing. :-)

That race sounds like a ton of fun! Great job. And congratulations to your daughter for her first race.

Nice PR.
Congrats on the PR without really trying.Just like you mentioned, your training surfaced as a good time. And you also were a great sport for your daughter in the mile race. Good job!
