Kaiser Permanente Half Marathon -- my first road half.
The course itself was fast, with a slight negative downhill which comes around the middle of the race passing from Golden Gate park to Ocean View ave. While my goal was 1:30, I came close and interestingly was on pace if it is true that I ran 13.2 like my fitbit tells me I did. For reference, my half marathon split from the New Oreans Rock n' Roll Marathon around this time three years ago was 1:30:59. So the 90 minute barrier remains to be broken! While I was hoping to be slightly faster, I really gave it my all and it was a real challenge.
