        Am I doing this right?

          Now it's time to go back to #1 on the list and get into a race.  If you're doing 29:15 in training, you're going to be pleased with your 5k race time.

           

           

          Way to go!

          No excuses....


          Am I doing this right?

            Sunday May 20th, I did my first half marathon.

             

            And while my time might not be the fastest in the world  2:48:35 was the official chip time.  I was happy with it.  (I know I never could have done any of the the things I'm doing 59 lbs ago! -- I still need to lose about 40 more, so if I can get the weight down it can only help with the running.)

             

            And I already know I want to run another one some day and maybe try to improve my time.

             


            Been there.  Isn't life so much better 59lbs lighter?

             

            Congrats on the 1/2, and congrats on the weight loss.  Keep it up!

            No excuses....

                            Yesterday, ran so far my nipples hurt for the first time (~10mi). Not only do I feel like a real runner now, but I feel a strange connection with Andrew Bernard.
