I am happy with my triathlon run today. I ran a 8:15 mile split.

It was our third year doing the triathlon together--Kenny, Brad, and I. We are all full-time pediatricians at South Bay, but each of us train in our specific event on a regular basis.

The hills did not faze me today. In fact, I took advantage of the hills (both uphill and downhill) to pass many other runners.

What made it more interesting was that a film crew was shooting "Batman Rises" on the actual running course (the film set was in the middle of the road), and we all ran past it while they were shooting. Fake snow was drifting down from above. It was simply surreal.

Damn impressive time for a run with hills.

Definitely!
I never understood split time, however

Quite impressive, yes.
Did you see any major actors while you passed?

No, the filming was under a bridge.

I didn't see any actors above the bridge, but I saw fake snow blowing around.

This was the set:

Looks pretty cool. Good to see the Batmobile is back, I didn't much like that bike thing.
[Edit] Actually, looking closer that thing doesn't appear to have any wheels. I wonder what it is?
