Scott Pearson shares his experience running the Sioux Falls half marathon, noting the pleasant 58-degree start temperature. After two hot races, he was relieved by the cooler weather. His primary goal was to finish safely, ideally around 2:45, and he successfully used a run-walk method despite some soreness. He mentions that Garmin is displeased due to his recent rest after the Blood Run ultra, but he remains optimistic. Pearson looks forward to a double race in two weeks and enjoyed a pre-race meal with fellow runners.
