Upcoming Race

I can't believe it is about to be one year since my first half marathon. I am running the same one this year (Ramblin' Rose), making it my 4th half. I am super excited, but because I had to take last week off due to sickness, I am starting to get a bit anxious.

(Here is an extremely blurry picture from my first half marathon, October 2011)

I know I can finish the 13.1 miles, it just stinks that I trained for 12 weeks and then I got sick just a couple weeks out, causing me to question all my hard work.

We will see how it goes... October 21,2012. Just 10 days away. I hope that determination joined with adrenaline will earn me a time that I won't be too embarrassed about... I am hoping for 1:57:00, but this course is very hilly, so I may not reach my goal.

I can't wait to cross the finish line and take a couple months off of long distance running.
