I ran my first half marathon today!! The course was super hilly. I knew that going into it cause the 5k is also hilly (you can say I like to take the harder way). Feel like I made okay time considering I walked up quite a few hills. I’m really happy and proud that I finished, and I can’t wait to do another one (maybe not this course again next time lol).
I’m training for my first half in October. I ran three miles yesterday with a friend with this run club nearby. Tried to run 8.1 miles (or 13.1K) today and just couldn’t do it. I kept stopping. My body just couldn’t get into it, and I stopped 5K into it to do the walk of shame back to my car. I know I still have a lot of time until October, but I’m kinda in my head now about if I can finish a half.
I started thought I’d never hit my 5k PR again. Surprisingly, I did it today!! It was a nice surprise after I crossed the finish line🙂
