First half marathon distance!

Posted on: 19 Feb 2012

I did 13 miles today, longest run yet. And I ran all the way - very slowly admitedly, but still, no walking at all so was pleased with that! The weather was lovely too - no ice, blue sky and sunshine, much nicer.

I am a bit torn between being pleased to get to a half marathon distance, and being more than a little freaked out that I am going to have to do double that in 9 weeks. Double. In 9 weeks. aaarrggghhh!!

I can feel it in my legs this evening - stairs seem to be a particular problem right now! Goodness knows what I'm going to be like after doing a full marathon ...

Happy running folks
