So my first half marathon was the Hershey Half Marathon back in October. I did that one in 2:18 and was super happy to just finish it. I couldn't imagine at that time running even longer.
On Saturday I did a local race in a series called the Movie Madness race series, people dress up as famous movie characters. The race even started with lights, camera, action, lol. Anyway, I ran this one in 1:50:04 and felt good at the end. I couldn't believe I finished so fast, I was hoping I could hit 2 hours, so this was pretty awesome!
Makes me feel good about the Rock'n'Roll San Diego marathon on June 2nd. My plan for that is to just finish, when I registered I put in a time of 4:45, I might try to do 4:30 or less though. All of my runs that are supposed to be at race pace I run at least a minute faster than race pace for, lol.
