    I wanted to run the Galena Half Marathon because people I know who have ran it really enjoyed the layout of the trail and how their race went. I was aiming for a sub- two hour but I only missed my goal by one minute. This was a flat out and back run on a trail that was mostly pea gravel and packed dirt. There were about the right amount of water/ Gatorade stations throughout. The start of the race (being late October) was 39 degrees and by the end of the race the temperature in the low 50’s. This is a smaller race with less then 200 total participants, which was good.
