I wanted to post up my results though. For those who maybe follow me on Facebook you might already know these, and are most likely sick of hearning me talk about the race, but I guess I really dont care. It was the most fun I think I have ever had and I cant wait to do it again!
Here are the cold, hard facts:
I am beyond happy with my results. For my first half marathon I would say this is a great start. Also, Nichole is a genius, she told me I was strong enough for a 1:38 and look at that, beat it by a whopping 1 second :)
I will be back later with a recap and some pictures....oh, and a really *awesome video of my finish
* awesome meaning I look like I'm dying
Claire...I am hoping that by now it is sinking in how crazy, amazingly good this is! Seriously. You have exceeded beyond what I thought and you have just begun. You are one lucky chicka to have Nichole in your camp, wow she knows what she is doing. You have more in there, so much more. Stay healthy, eat lots and well, listen to your body, bones and joints and there is no limit. Set the next goal and above all have fun with it. There is nothing like the feeling of success. I think you are a rock star and I am proud of you. The best part is I know what it feels like, to run like the wind, work hard and feel the pain and know what it is like to simply love to run. It will never leave me. Mumsy
ReplyDeleteCongrats Claire to you and Jake. Your hard work is paying off. Anyone can run a race but it takes more than words to be a True Competitor of the Sport. Train with a purpose, be an Athlete - WINNING IS FUN
