That’s nearly two minutes faster than the previous mark, set by Paul Ngeny (1:07:24) in 2011! Cindy Lynch, of Cardif, Calif., took home the women’s title, speeding through the finish with a time of 1:24:45. Close behind, Kellie Nickerson (who won the inaugural Tinker Bell Half Marathon in January) finished in 1:26:29.

I had a BLAST here! It was such an inspiring event. I would encourage everyone to try it once. Already going through race withdrawals...wish I could do again this weekend!
