(okay, most likely run-walk, my training hasn&#8217;t been all that great, it&#8217;s been more of the cross-training variety). I would like all these races more if they didn&#8217;t start so early, but then I would hate all these races more because they would be too hot. So I guess you take what you get.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/runrocknroll.competitor.com\/los-angeles\/event-details\" title=\"LA Rock and Roll Half Details\" target=\"_blank\">course<\/a> starts and ends at Staples Center\/L.A. Live\/The Convention Center and then does an interesting out and back and out the other way and back route that I&#8217;ve never really seen before. I have to go pick up my bib on Friday or Saturday, be out there early Sunday, and try to finish before 11 so I have some time to enjoy the festivities before heading back to a softball game at 1. Yup, I&#8217;m a stud (or was it I&#8217;m stupid? I always forget the pi . . . mmm, pie . . . wait, what was I talking about?).<\/p>\n<p>Like I said up top (sort of), this will probably be my last Half-Marathon for a while. I may come back to them after my Marathon or two next year, but I think I may settle into the 5 to 10K range for a while (but perhaps throw in some obstacles). I am looking forward to running through the streets of L.A. and hearing some of the bands on the route.<\/p>\n<p>Weight: 225 Loss: 15 lbs &#8211; Running Yearly Mileage: 330 miles (+3 miles)<br \/>\nSoftball Stats: Game 5 &#8211; 1\/3 (.333), 1 R, 1 RBI Season &#8211; 15\/21 (.714), 3 2B, 10 R, 7 RBI<br \/>\nFitocracy Level: 26 ID: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fitocracy.com\/profile\/disciplev1\/\" title=\"Fitocracy DiscipleV1 Profile\" target=\"_blank\">disciplev1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, note to self: in the future, do not schedule any Half-Marathons during Softball season (sub-note: do not schedule any more Half-Marathons period . . . at least for a while).
