That you have run a half marathon.

If you run 21.1km in training would you consider you have run a half marathon or would you save that status or achievement until you had done an actual event?

    To me saying "I've run a half marathon" means to have completed a timed competitive event. Otherwise I would state "I've run 13.1 miles" or "I've run the half marathon distance in training"

    Running my first half was a huge moment and I don't think a training run captures that. Just my 2c.
