NYC Half Marathon, Presented by Nike

Official Time for one Peter Shankman: 1:52:23.

Bested my old half marathon time by more than 2 minutes, 30 seconds.

Can’t move now, but so totally worth it.

Go me! :)

PS: PR (as in PR) for this was insane – WABC covered it live, as did every other NYC station in all their news programs. Props to NYRR’s PR team!

WOOHOO!! Speed Racer!! It looks like you breaking 4hrs for the NYC Marathon is definitely going to happen. All the hard work is paying off and you should be super-proud of yourself!!! Go Peter Go!

At the rate you’re pushing yourself, either you or the 4-hour Marathon barrier will crumble soon. Hope it’s not you.

Congrats, Peter! Nice job.

Of course, *my* PR for the half is 1:37 something. (But, that was a career or two ago, a family ago, a four-year tour of college ago, right after my junior HS cross-country season!) Now, I’d be happy to break 12 minutes for my lunch-time runs.

Does that mean you qualify for Boston?
