Half Marathon update - one month away!

I can't believe that it's almost here! I'm ready and feeling good about my training thus far. I have 3 more long runs left - 11, 12, and 13 miles. Then I'm going to take a rest week and then it's here! Before this, I did two weeks of 10 miles. The second one went much better than the first. I've been doing 2-4 runs in between the long one, depending on the day. I usually do one fast short one (3-3.5 miles), and two longer ones (4.5-6 miles).



Before that, I did one 9 mile run and 2 8 milers (the first of which was so rough). The first 8 mile run I did was one of those "I hate running I never want to do it again, I suck and I'm slow and I'll never finish" runs. It was bad. But it taught me perserverence (I think) and that sometimes you need to suck because of teaches you to get better and stick through it.



I'm feeling good about tomorrow My huskies did lose a painful game today and I may or may not be hungover tomorrow... But I can do 11 miles. Maybe not fast. But  I shall keep you posted.
