The Homestretch Challenege was definitely not my best work. I was tired and I was not ready.
……Also, I’ll admit I was pretty scared to run the half marathon. I sprinted at the end and I knew I was holding out because I was scared of the mileage.
Other than that, my only excuse is that I’m a NON-RUNNER!
However, it does feel good to break into the 8’s!
GOALS: 5k – 22:40
10k – 47:25
1/2 Marathon – 1:45
Marathon: 3:40 or less! (Boston Qualify!)
This will probably take more than a year.
