Christmas Market Pictures / Race Stats

I went over to the Christmas market across the street this morning just as they were opening up and snapped a few pictures. It rained most of the day so I’m sure the vendors were disappointed with sales today. We enjoyed walking around checking out some of the crafts.

A couple statistics from my half-marathon yesterday:

I was 18th out of 23 in my age class (M45).
I was in 116th place out of 175 runners

The male winner of the half-marathon finished in 1:14:51, winning female 1:39:56.

My time if you didn't read my post yesterday was 1:54:24.

An interesting side note. Albert Olbrechts, the 90 year runner who participates in most area 10K runs finished the 10K in 1:29:31 and ran it in a Santa Klaus outfit, complete with beard – this guy continues to amaze people of all ages. Way to go Albert!

Way to go Jack! That's an excellent time. And wow, 5 halfs in one year. Simply amazing.
 
I think your time is FANTASTIC!!! I'd kill for that time! If I'm ever nutty enough to sign up for a 1/2! Way to go!
