First Half Marathon (2:06:31!!!)
I ran my very first half in Detroit on Sunday. I trained to run it in 2:15:00, so I was very happy with my 2:06:31 finish. I even felt like I could have finished in under 2:05 if it hadn't been for all those people in my way on the Ambassador Bridge and Windsor Tunnel :)
My next goal is to finish a half in under 2 hours, and I plan to run a full marathon in May as long as I still have the courage.
Congrats! That's a great time!
