The Chevron Houston Marathon & Aramco Houston Half-Marathon were held on January 30, 2011. I was determined to beat my time from last year (which was 2:55). This year I finished in 2:23 which was about 7 minutes faster than the San Antonio Rock 'n Roll Half Marathon in November. Still not speedy, but the only person I race (loosely calling it race) against is myself. The weather was in the 60's and rainy...not exactly ideal running conditions, but the spectators were awesome. It seemed like there were way more than last year. All in all a good run and lots of fun...can't wait till next year's half. :)

The finisher medal
Yes...my hat is apparently reflective...
We were sneaky and took a quick picture of our own before the photographers kicked us out.
