  6. My 1/2 Marathon went very well! I finished at 2:57:22, under my 3 hour goal mark! I pretty much only ran the first 10 miles, and around 11 miles is where I began cramping, so a lot of walking to finish!

    1. jane13

      jane13

      that's a great accomplishment! I know you have been working towards running more and more. Not my "thing" but I can appreciate your enthusiasm:D

    2. Chrystee

      @jane13 It was a big goal I've wanted to complete.. not my thing either really.. cycling is my thing.. but I'll keep it up!

      So how did it go? I signed up for an 8 mile offroad race here in Michigan in November. Goal is next year to do the 30 mile full off road race. I am new to cycling and can do probably 45-50 miles at a time, but have never raced.

  10. Ran 4.25 miles in 55 minutes? Yes, I did.
