Holly Cow!!! You did a 1/2 with only 3.5 months training?! Gee Wiz! AND you stopped training for a little while?! AND you still finished with a 8 minute and change mile?! UMmMMmm WOWZERS I wish I could say that. I started training the same time as you and I'm only at 6 miles in an hour. (10 minute mile)
WAY TO GO!!
Did you run before starting this training?
I did run before my training. I have done alot of 5k's, running on the treadmill, etc. but NEVER more than 3-5 miles and i run SLOW. my average pace per mile for the half was 11 minutes something. Slow and steady is how I run

WTG OP!!!
Do you think you will do more half marathons?
YES, my first thought was how I could beat my time next year. I think I will be making Grandmas Half marathon an annual thing with my girls. What a great experience, and the party after should NOT be missed
Nice one!!!
You are officially addicted now I think hahaha0 -
Well done!!!!
You ROCK!!!:drinker:0 -

Half marathons are SO addicting. I recommend the Disney Princess Half Marathon in Orlando. My mom and I did it this year and it was the most amazing race I've ever done.
I guarantee you'll do tons more!! Keep up the amazing work!0 -
I'm so glad I read this post! I'm thinking of doing a half marathon for the first time in Jan, but I keep doubting myself. I think I'll register next payday now!! Thanks!0

OH! Still great! I did the math wrong thinking you did 8 min miles! But still that's pretty impressive that you didn't really get your milage up BEFORE the race WOOT WOOT I'm not that brave hehehe I WILL run a 1/2 before a year is up! And then I'll get to post a brag Message too! YAY YOU! 0 -
