Well, I did it!! Earlier today I completed my first 1/2 marathon. It was an awesome experience. My knee was sore throughout the run but it held up long enough for me to get to the finish line. I watched the Kona Ironman on TV yesterday and that provided some needed motivation, they are truly awesome athletes!
I struggled both mentally and physically at about mile 7. I thought I might have to walk but I pushed through. My final time was 2:19:33!! That was an awesome time from my perspective for my first attempt at the Marathon, much better than I had expected.
I am already struggling to walk on my knee right now, but I think it just needs a day or two of rest.
So, what should my next goal be??? :)
