With spring track around the corner for most people there will be those long winter and early spring runs and soon those short and fast runs in the warm weather. Everyone wants to PR in their races since it is the greatest felling you can get as a runner. I remember people talking about wanting to post PR's but we can also say how we progressed and how much time we have taken off out PR's. You can also list what time you would like to hit in parenthesis. I will put mine below.
I'm so relieved to have the marathon behind me. It's an accomplishment I've strived for the past two summers. Even though I didn't reach my time goal, I'm extremely happy and satisfied to have finished in a reasonable time. I ended up at 4.11:48. Not too shabby considering I walked roughly a half mile or so because the weather reached an unreal 90 degrees. Nothing could've prepared me for an obstacle like that, not even 18 weeks of continuous training handed down by experts. During the race people were falling out, stopping frequently to ponder whether or not to continue with the fight. It seemed like a bad dream.
I wanted to create this group for people who are currently training for a race of some kind. Whether it be a 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or full marathon. The idea is all the members can share ideas with the trials and successes of their training. I'm currently in the middle of training for my first marathon. I'm training in Colorado and running the Chicago marathon in October. I hope the mile high altitude will give me the advantage to finish the race and finish strong. I don't know if there there will be enough interest in my group, but it's worth a try.
