route 66 half-marathon

I had planned on running a 1:16:59 but the early hills were more challenging than anticipated, my fitness level isn't what I thought and 1:18:25 will have to be good enough for now. 7th overall, 1st in age group and 1st master in a large field should be satisfying, but I know I've got work to do. Everyone else seems to be impressed but I know I'm missing a gear. I'll be looking for it.
