30:22

Initially appeared on vox.com on 9/28/2008.

So yesterday i ran in the Komen Grand Rapids Race for the Cure.

Unfortunately i missed my target by 22 seconds. And while an average pace of 9:46 for half an hour is (at least for me) quite an accomplishment, it feels a little bit like consuelo de bobo.

There's another 5k in a week - i hope to come in under 30 for that one.

(By the way, the sensor pocket works pretty well, but it looks like i'll need to re-calibrate, as it now shows me running more than what i actually did.)
