I was wondering if you made it down to the race. I'm glad you did. I also just wanted to finish, I did. I saw a race bib with these words "death before DNF" and that's what I would tell myself every time I wanted to drop out. So, no DNF for me. Mike hit a PR, beating his best time by 1 minute. He is now considering a full marathon. Me, I don't know if I will ever do this again, but I'm glad I did it at least once. If Mike & his running partner do the 1/2 in Oct. I may be there as the cheering section again, we'll see how it goes.

As for you, yes, you are a 1/2 marathoner broken heart , you became one in Oct. You became a rock star when you did this one. Rock on my friend. angry

Linda I thought about yall all weekend.  I was like DAMN did I even send her the hotel.  DAMN I hope she's ok etc etc.  I'm glad you finished and ironically I never wanted to do one again.  But obviously we know I signed up and I think THIS one made me feel like a MILLION BUCKS.  I had so MANY mental blocks but I refused to give in and did it!!

I'll be doing the Half in LA in October.  And if he considers doing the San Diego one I'll be there doing a half and my girlfriend Mandi will be doing the FULL!!

ROCK on girl!!  Congratulations fellow Half Marathoner.

You ROCK, you have once again inspired me, I am trying to train for a 5K and then want to work up to a 10K.  If I can do that, then I will shoot for a half marathon!

I so KNOW you can do it!!  Have you signed UP for that 5K??  Sign up and even if you think you can't do it...guess what do it anyway!!

Yes, I have signed up for a water run at the end of July (wasn't thinking clearly about that one, no music because of the water) and another fun one, a Wicked Wine Run, wine at the finish line and then a 1K after that with 4 wine stops along the way! :)
