Cooper River Bridge run 2012

This is me right before the Cooper Bridge run at 6am.. You have to line up for this thing at 7 am with a start time of 8am ... this year however there was SEVERAL issues that the race director seemed to have. YIKES.. it was 9 am before we started. 

 In all I had a pretty slow race.. but not bad for me, as I took on a full time/ part time job this year. And had some pretty fantastic stress.. which you can read about further down.

 Before the race this was most all of my bibs and medals. Something to be proud of! :) Cheers
