The half marathon that once seemed so far away back in November when I initially
decided to run it, is now just less that 2 months away...AHH! Yesterday marked the official 2 month mark from when I will traverse 13.1 miles in a single event. Ever since I ran in the 10 K in mid-March I have been more successful with my training. The 10 K rejuvinated me and I have been running 2-3 times and doing 2 cross training days (usually Pure Barre classes) each week. Each run gets easier and I am able to run longer distances before needing to stop to walk. To date my longest run is 7.5 miles (I ran all the way around Coronado Island) and on Friday I am planning to run 9.5 miles! My "short" runs now are typically not shorter than 4 miles which is crazy considering when I started my training 4 miles was my long run. Part of me is sad that this training will eventaully be over (I cannot believe I actually feel that and said it). My hope is that I can continue running without having a half-marathon goal set as I don't know if I will do another. Here is to the last 2 months of training! Go BIG or go home!
