My running friend Rich from Milwaukee also came up. We both ran the Door County Half Marathon in Peninsula State Park (Fish Creek) on Saturday morning. It was a beautiful course with lots of hills and nice temperatures. I came in 10th with a time of 1:25:38 (6:32 per mile), took second in the Masters category and first in the 50-54 age category. I have a little sunburn but otherwise and doing fine. Wasn't fully recovered yet from the Boston Marathon less than two weeks earlier so could have probably run a few minutes faster under normal conditions. 
My friend Rich ran a 1:38:05 (7:29 per mile pace), coming in 48th overall. The weather Sunday was cooler and cloudier, so we came back to Milwaukee in the early afternoon. On the way home near Sheboygan, a car was swerving back and forth between lanes and almost hit me when he went past at 80 mph. He almost hit a number of other cars and even ran off the shoulder briefly on both sides of the road. I called 911 and reported the guy. Don't know if he was on drugs, drunk or trying to text while driving, but he scare the hell out of a lot of people.
Till next week....
