I did it I did it I did it I did it!! (Read 540 times)

    Did I mention I did it? Big grin Big grin White Rock 1/2 today! It was freezing, it was drizzling....but it was FANTASTIC!!! I kept my pace steady...finished under my goal (goal was 2:30, finished at 2:27). I will write a full report later once I can focus on more than the fact that I ran a half marathon!!!!!
    Started running Nov 2006 1st race: Cowtown 10K 2/24/07 1:09:32 PR 5K 29:54 PR 10K 1:01:08 White Rock 1/2 Dec 07 2:27:50 2010 goals PR all!!!
      Congratulations!! Looking forward to the report!! Smile
        Great job on your first! Big grin (Sounds like running a HM gave you a pretty good high. Wink) It was a pack house, huh? It took me about 30 mins just to get to the starting area!

                Awesome! I don't think you're excited enough though; the subject line should ACTUALLY be as follows; I did it I did it I did it I did it I did it I did it I did it I did it I did it!! (Notice how I added about 5 more "i did its" in there? NOW I know you're excited, as well you should be!)

                      When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

                          Brilliant. Factoring in the wind, rain, and cold that sounds like a tough run. Congratulations.
