Red Shoe Half Marathon

Race started at 8:00 PM. Because of my bad experience almost getting late in the last race, I decided to be earlier this time. Had enough time to park the car and look for people. Saw CB and thought he is a very good and strong runner. Talked to him just before the race. He asked if I was going to finish in 1:25.  I said no way. I'll be happy with 1:40. Race started and decided to run just behind him or next to him. First mile was downhill, so, obviously we were going pretty fast. I stayed with CB for about three mils and then he stayed behind me. I decided to slow down a little bit, because I knew I was going to suffer later.
I ran into BK by Parkview church and talked to him. He said he was going slow because he wanted to save some energy for the first climb. But, it looks like he didn't save enough. Didn't see him again after that. Ran with a short Chinese girl for a while, but she looked like she was also giving up.
