Yesterday I ran my second half marathon. I really enjoyed the whole thing, as opposed to last year, when the last two miles were torture. I missed my goal time by a minute, but I'm still happy with my time of 2:00:59.9.
I'm planning to train for a full marathon next year. I'd like to do it in under 4 hours, so I'll need to improve my endurance quite a bit.
Melissa ran the race as well. I beat her 2010 time by a minute, but she beat it by 12 minutes. I'm planning to beat her next year :)
Congratulations on improving so much. Being a minute off your goal in a half marathon is really good.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Melissa as well on improving her time so much.
I really loved the race yesterday. Last year I started out too fast and was so exhausted the last couple of miles I could hardly run. This year I paced myself and saved some energy for the end. I felt better and stronger the longer I ran. I trained a lot this summer and ran a half marathon in August so I felt a lot better prepared this year.I finished with a time of 1:50:03 which was a lot faster than I anticipated running so I am thrilled with my time. I was the 17th overall female runner out of 295 and my goal next year is to be in the top 10.
