I got a late start on my training and only made it to week 7, but I attempted a half marathon anyway. The course was open for six hours so I thought, what the heck. I started out running, then switched to a 3/2 run/walk, then switched to just surviving as best I could! My feet and legs ached like never before. It poured rain for the first 3 miles, then two more times before I finished. But I did finish, and I would do it all over again!
At this point, I'm going to pick up where I left off with the program and try to finish it. After I recover, that is. It's been two days and I still feel like I'm recovering from a really crazy bender.
If you're on the fence about running running a 13.1, do it! It's so worth it. Plus there all all shapes, sizes, and speeds. Even lots of walkers!
Happy running, and make your Monday count!
