you guys...
I totally did it! Finished my first half marathon that is. I finished in 2:11:46 which is pretty close to what my goal was (my goal was 2:10). It was pretty fun and I'm glad I did it. It's crazy how many people run those and how time goes a little faster when there's a few thousand people to watch. I'll admit that at around mile 9 I got a little bored and wanted to quit, mostly because I was running through Liberty Park (I actually do this quite often and I HATE it, it's so boring, it seems SO long) and my armpits were kind of rubbing on my tank top and quite honestly it hurt a lot. Not that you care but I definitely recommend a non-ribbed tank top next time you think about running 13 miles, your pits will thank you. Anyway, I finished, and now I have to gear up for the Ogden half, maybe in that one I'll make 2:10!

holy.cow.
i got motivated by your stories of running. (i am a horrible runner) so this morning I went fast walking. There was a short block up ahead and I thought, ok 1,2,3 RUN! And I ran for like one block.
It nearly killed me.
So congrats on running for 2 hours! I am completely amazed!
