So we did it – finished the half marathon. I can’t believe I ran the whole thing. We made the crazy decision to run the Atlanta Half Marathon http://www.atlantatrackclub.org/at03000.htm) on Thanksgiving day after a race on Labor Day. After the first 5k I’ve run in years, I started “training” – in quotes because I’m not sure that I was committed enough to legitimately call it training – for 13.1 on Thanksgiving day. Other than blisters and sore muscles, I survived unscathed and actually enjoyed the race. Official time was 2:19ish… looking forward to maybe doing another one in the future & beating that time…..
