If memory serves me, there were something like 800 runners that earned the extra medal this year. We rode the bus back to the hotel with a family that had earned theirs (and 2 of them managed to place in their age category!). Let me tell you, the medals were GORGEOUS! Seriously, the photos don't do them justice.

And if you get the Garmin, maybe you'll figure out you CAN do a full?!?
Mr. Swanie keeps trying to get me to admit that I'll do a full in the next year. We'll see. 2009 seems to be pushing it, but I won't rule out 2010.

I just really liked the length of the half. Not too insane, but more of a challenge than a 10K. But who am I kidding, I'm too competitive NOT to try it some day.

And was that you I saw on a certain running board?
