Wow!!! It’s been 2 months already since my first marathon. Also, it’s been quite a while since my last blog post. I know I’ve been slacking on my blog but that does not mean that I’ve been slacking on my running. Since my first marathon, I’ve run a couple of 5 mile races (one of them I PR’d at a sub 8 minute average pace!!) and tomorrow, I’ll be running the Gate River Run 15K. The race that’s starting to become a tradition for me since it was the event that got me started into running.
Since I’m now fully recovered and have used up all my runner’s high from my first marathon, I’m now ready to get back into blogging about my runs. I’m also starting to think about my next marathon. No idea when and where yet, but the idea is already there.
So much has actually happened since my last post, I noticed a lot of improvement in my endurance and mechanics. I’m really excited to try new things and add new stuff to my training.
But for now, I will have to sign off early because I have to be up early tomorrow. Here’s a photo of me at the finish from my first marathon:
