I have yet to download the official race pics, none of which are spectacular, but I finished Irongirl 10mile under my goal of 2 hours! It was a great race to participate in with the half coming up in January. I definitely feel confident that I can finish the half with no walking, no problem.
Jake and I were just reminiscing the past year of races, at Skirtchaser 5k we needed to walk a portion to make it through, at Pat's Run the same, we pushed through the San Diego Marathon to finish our portion(s). However we have ran a few races this fall and have been training (seriously this time around) and now it's not a problem to run 10miles at a time. It is truly amazing what a body, and more importantly, a mind can push through.
Next weekend I am volunteering with Girls On The Run, which means I am running with a little girl or two in a 5k, either I will be challenged trying to keep up with them or encouraging them to finish! I can't wait!! The following weekend is a 12k's of Christmas Run which I am excited for!! After that, I think it is just train train train for the 1/2!
