    Ran both the Columbus Ohio Capital City Half Marathon and the Cincinnati Ohio Flying Pig marathon this weekend. Did not try to run fast, just wanted to run both races this weekend.

    Wow!! That is fantastic!! My last 10k race was around 45 minutes. It was a couple years ago though. My next race is a half Marathon just for fun. Called Charity Chase. I've run it several times. I'm looking for a good flat course to qualify again for Boston.
    :happy:

    Last half 1:42:29, 5th/1205 in age group. Not a PR but still good effort. Ran with the whole family (hubs, dad, siblings).

    Ok, started running ( for real ) in March 2013 having lost 15kg thanks to MFP. Started with a Parkrun and came in just below 25 mins, which surprised me a little to be honest in a good way!

    Since then lots of training and the odd race:

    5k 21'28 in Jan this year - I've done about 8 parkruns in total and always improved my time so far. Probably due another crack at this.....

    10k 45'53 last October in Hatfield

    HM 1'41 in Copenhagen IAAF March this year - I was delighted with that, in such a fantastic event my first experience of a massive race.

    My first marathon is now 16 days away......gulp. Aiming for 3'45 as a ballpark, but sub 4 my main target. Capable of faster in theory but the legs to tend to start tiring on my long runs at around 11-12 miles.....I think the use of gels and drinks may be the key but that comes with experience I guess......

    Last week 5K - 21:44. A PR for me for a race, but way off the 20:45 I was able to do last month for no particular reason. I freeze up like a freshman at a keg party when it comes to races. It kills me.

    Race 13.1 Series, Greensboro, NC Half-marathon on 5/18/2014.

    2:06:27 (new PR). This was a very hilly course (~900 vertical feet of climb over the span of 13.1 miles as measured by my Fitbit. Approximately 700 feet measured by GPS)

    Shaved 7:20 off my March half-marathon time that was run on a much flatter course.

    It has been said that hills are just speedwork in disguise!

    Funky Kingston Half in Kingston, NH on May 18th. 2:22:26 official time, however I must note the race wasn't chip timed and i spent the first couple of minutes of the race in the Porta potty with my 40 lb 4 yearold. Then i put said 4 yearold in her jogging stroller and pushed her up and down hills of varying degrees of steepness for 13.1 miles. Not my fastest HM (current pr 2:06 out of 6 races) but it was faster than my first, officially by 10 seconds, but you know, more like 2 minutes faster because of the potty incident. Also, it was the first time I ever pushed the stroller for 13.1 miles. It was hard! But rather enjoyable!

    Not a race but - 37+ miles this week so far, may go later on for another few miles to get to 40. Highest since Oct 2013. I think it is possible to bounce back! YAY. Oh and I got 2nd in age group on a 10K Saturday, finish stretch at 7:01 pace. Total time not as impressive ha ha but feeling I am getting back in shape.

    Not even close to the 3:49:18 Amazing first Marathon time (ahh to be young)
    -Keybank Vermont City Marathon, It got pretty warm (close to 80) which really took a toll on me, but 4:42:45 for me is a PR so pretty happy. But I did need IV fluids after. All in all a great race in a great location, and the volunteers, crowds, course, and most importantly medical staff were all Great!

    Did my first 10K on Saturday. 1:08:50. I woke up with a horrible stomach ache and knew it wasn't going to be fun. :( I ran about 10:45 pace for the first 4 miles. By the 5th the stomach pain was too much so I did walk/run intervals for the rest of the race. So disappointing.

    Got my butt kicked at Camp Currahee this morning. 10k, 52:09, which is 5 minutes off my PR. There's a reason for it, tho.

    10307174_10152425555482270_6470266450520795638_n.jpg

    That's right, a near 600-foot climb in one mile and it was brutal. With the exception of the top 4 or 5 guys, EVERYONE walked a huge portion of the hill.

    My only personal disappointment is that I was so leg tired from the week's workouts and from running up about 1/3 of that hill that I had nothing left for the couple small climbs on the way back to the start/finish. Down hill I went as quick as I felt I could and still stay in control. The couple guys I work with that ran with me were bats outta hell on the way down. They beat me :ohwell:

    But I had some fun, made it up and back without being dead, and have a new race t-shirt I'll likely wear (unlike most which just go in a drawer).

    Wow, awesome race! That's tough to do in those conditions. Did you see Meb or were you ahead of him?

    Meb was pacing the half. He came and started us for the full and he was on stage passing out the Overall awards.
