Race details
Date: 10/7/2012
Distance: Half Marathon
Location: San Jose, CA
I ran San Jose Rock n Roll Half in 2012. It was my last run before my full marathon the following weekend, the Nike Women Marathon in SF. I originally signed up for the mini-marathon, but after seeing the half marathon medal I switched. LOL
The course is mostly flat with a few "hills" (they are actually underpasses, but can be just as challenging as hills). This was my first Rock n Roll event, but I had several friends run San Jose's in years past. The course starts and end in Downtown San Jose, by HP Pavilion/Shark Tank. You run through Japantown, down the Alameda and almost to Santana Row/Valley Fair.
Unfortunately I got sick the night before so didn't do well. I added an hour to my usually half marathon time, because I kept using the bathroom and had a horrible foot & leg cramp. This was my 2nd half marathon so I wanted to improve on my personal time.
I signed up for the 2014 half marathon and hope that I will enjoy the run this time around. And my boyfriend will be running with me this year :D
