Nike Run Hit Remix

So I was in Chicago for a whole week for work. I always end up eating too much good food on these trips. But this really makes my job fun in that I get to travel one time out of the year. I love to travel. But anyways, I didn't get back home until Friday night around 12am. Woke up Saturday morning to run the Nike Run Hit Remix. This race is really targetting people my age since all of the bands/groups were big when I was in high school. MC Hammer was at the finish line, but I didn't go check him out to see if he was wearing his genie pants. =)

The weather was rather hot this year... still having problems running in heat. I was trying to run at a 7:30 min/mile pace, but I was dying by the halfway point. Since I was getting nauseous and laboring to keep my running form, I had to pull up and walk a little. My gun time was 44:50, about 3 mins slower than last year. They gave out a nice looking red shirt made by Nike, but they were terrible for running.
