Nice job! Your splits are pretty impressive as you maintained control going down and didn't overextend yourself going up the hill. Good job on the 8:02 last mile and still have some kick at the end .

Congrats on your new and well deserved PR. Those are hills! Wow.

I might have to look at Detroit in 2015. It's hard to say no with all of the great reviews I keep hearing.

Congrats on the new PR, c0de!
Strong race on those hills. The sunrise pic is beautiful even with porta-potties, nice job.

Congratulations to you (and your wife)! You've certainly improved a lot since you've started running. So cool that you ran into LRB; not surprised he was cool. Beautiful sunrise picture!

I am guessing you will pr in Detroit. That looks like a long, tough and tedious hill you had to climb, but I bet the Beer made it worth it. Good work.
Excellent PR, congratulations! Those hills... wow!
