I Am Posting to Brag

Post by Tary »

Ran my 2nd ever half marathon (sadly not the full thing; I really wanted the full but between family visits and general laziness I couldn't put in the hours to train properly for the full 26.2 miles) this past Friday.
Achieved a new personal record. Official chip time: 1:48:17

Here's some pics. Can't inline them because of image width limitations so just posting links to imgur.

Woot, WTG Tary!

Congratulations Tary, That's awesome :)
The most important lesson I've learned over this past year, is not to let anyone make you cruel. No matter how badly you want to give the world a taste of it's own bitter medicine, it is never worth losing yourself.

To be fair, it's an easy PR it being only my 2nd HM. ;)

Ok maybe for you.. lol but I have run a few halfs ( before I got old and my knees decided they didn't like me running anymore!) and my time was usually 2:15-2:30ish ( which for me was good!).. so I still say congrats! ;)
Where was the race (if I may ask?)

LOL So glad to know you didn't poop yourself mid-race!! ( Was that a goal to do?!!)

I haven't read all of it yet but will later, thanks for sharing! I have great respect for runners and what it takes to prepare and complete a race! :D

Definitely NOT a goal :P

That is: my goal was accomplished by NOT doing that. :)
