I just got into running last year and had BIG plans to run at least one 5K this past fall - but then I got a tumor and couldn't really do anything but freak out and have surgery. I'm just now getting back on the running wagon and, let me tell you, it SUCKS to be passed by all the people you were passing before. On one hand it's a good thing - I don't have a tumor anymore and I'm feeling good enough to run - but on the other hand it's bad. I feel like a wienie - cuz right now I'm one of those 12 minute mile people. And I don't wanna be one of those 12 minute mile people! So, now you've totally inspired me to get my sorry ass in gear! Way to go, you! WOOHOO for running your first 5k!

Probably, partly because I was there but also because this is some funny material. Seriously though, it is harder than it looks and can be a very humbling experience. Next goal....30 minutes! Great job! First of all, you made me LOL several times reading this. Probably, partly because I was there but also because this is some funny material.

You are my HERO! A half-marathon without training? Whew! Did you wog? And I agree, even though I bitched my head off while I was doing it and could barely walk the next day, I felt GOOOOOOD.

Training schmainign...its all about heart and part utter ignorance! =) I did EXACTLY what you did except for I showed up to a half marathon instead of a 5K. My hubby was mortified (in fact the week before we had a HUGE blow out because I thought he was being UNSUPPORTIVE when he asked...Do you KNOW how long 13.1 is going to be?[for the record...I can't tell a yard from a mile to save my life]) But NOTHING beats the feeling of OMFG I DID IT! and the pride in my hubby's eyes (when you KNOW he was thinking HOLY crap I better hit the gym!) Congrats! Traci & I are doing the OC half marathon May 2nd if you want to come play!!! LIZ – Girl I am SO PROUD!
