AW: met my goal at my 12k today!

I just ran Bloomsday, which is a local 12k  that is a pretty big deal in my city and about 55,000 participants.  It is a pretty hilly course with a large hill around mile 4.5, that I had to walk about half of.  I also had to stop to pee around mile 3ish.  I ran corporate cup with a group of coworkers, though we didn't run together, just started together and met up at the end.  My goal was 1:20, and I crossed the finish line at 1:20:32.  I don't have an official time, but I think it was somewhere around 1:18 and change.  I'm thrilled with that, but my legs are a little tired :).

 Im running my first half in two weeks, and now feeling a little daunted, but it is a pretty flat course and I plan to run slower...eek.
