The half is a great distance. I really enjoy it, but I had to take that next step out of my comfort zone. I *know* I can do well at a half. I feel like I have to prove to myself that I can push myself beyond the comfort zone. I will definitely keep doing halfs.Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304497617228725441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-7225462177866348922010-08-30T11:00:13.826-05:002010-08-30T11:00:13.826-05:00I'm going to run my first 1/2 this year.

As the kids get busier and my work gets busier, I imagine I'll find that's the best answer for me.MCM Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588793352268224508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-43473702952085018942010-08-29T20:18:58.585-05:002010-08-29T20:18:58.585-05:00No run today, but I did do the Jillian Michaels &q...No run today, but I did do the Jillian Michaels "Banish Fat and Boost Metabolism" DVD while the girls were taking their afternoon nap!

I wanted you to know you helped to inspire me to get out and do my 20 mile run with my husband today. It went really well, one of the best training runs so far. Our marathon is on Oct. 17. Best of luck to you!stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091026480573795774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-42841212029098309732010-08-29T14:31:13.152-05:002010-08-29T14:31:13.152-05:00Hope the 20 miles went ok!!Hope the 20 miles went ok!!Karen Sealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01859540994687133829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-79597743129769620062010-08-29T14:24:21.342-05:002010-08-29T14:24:21.342-05:00Did my long miles yesterday....

I don't dread or mind the couple hour long training runs, but it gets tougher when you start looking at more than 4 hours to train...<br /><br />I haven't run my first full yet, but I have a feeling I won't be running too many of them in the future. I really do like the half distance :)!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150626438827196914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-12181180159579900102010-08-29T13:21:19.797-05:002010-08-29T13:21:19.797-05:00No run today - recovering from yesterday's eve...No run today - recovering from yesterday's event.ajhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851129364728161965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-58974013975376616122010-08-29T12:44:50.232-05:002010-08-29T12:44:50.232-05:00I know exactly how you feel.

I love half marathons too and hope to really see my time improve as they become top priority and not just part of a larger training plan. Good luck on your run today!ihaverunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12353024020794141387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105789983366544448.post-15389759028410639332010-08-29T10:48:58.136-05:002010-08-29T10:48:58.136-05:00I did my 12 miles today, and got a cramp in my ham...I did my 12 miles today, and got a cramp in my hamstring for the first time ever...not fun!!
