Hello! I ran the Lexus Lace Up Half Marathon in Riverside yesterday! I’m doing a quick recap on the podcast today.
But first… let’s warm up!

Lace Up Riverside Half Marathon Recap {Podcast}
Lace Up Race Series – last one for the year!
– My Half Marathon finish time: 1:45:40 – pace: 8:03
Felt good. Wanted to use this as my speed work for the week. Slowed for a second to talk to Pam. No kick at the end.
– Theme: Reindeer Run!
– Course: Hill at the start and a few nice sized hills during the race but I wouldn’t call it hilly.
– Weather: Cold! For me (and me only).
– Runner perks: So many runner perks!!
Reindeer Antlers. Santa Hats. Santa was there! Food trucks. Gear check. Red tee. Free print outs of pics from Instagram. Free race photos.
– Favorite part: I love the food trucks and free race pics!!
– Do it again? Yes!
RER Awards for the week {Podcast}:
1st: Vegas for his final fight.
2nd: Lindt dark chocolate truffles.
3rd. Celestial Seasonings and Bigelow Seasonal Tea.
My favorites are the Celestial Seasonings Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride and Bigelow Eggnog Tea.
Celestial has a ton of seasonal flavors:
Candy Cane Lane // Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride // Sugar Plum Spice // Cranberry Vanilla Wonderland // Gingerbread Spice // Sweet Harvest Pumpkin // or a holiday flavor pack
