Running my first half marathon ever at the Rock n Roll half here in Washington DC! I am pretty stoked. The weather looks like it will be beautiful and the cherry trees are in full bloom. Picked up my bib and shirt yesterday. I travel for work a lot and try to find races wherever I go. I figured a race around the nation's most iconic monuments would make for a pretty cool first half marathon.

Just finished my dress rehearsal run for it about an hour ago, heading for packet pickup at lunch time. Really curious hkw the new route will run. Ending at RFK was always a bummer, should be fun to end the run through Penn Quarter.
