NYC Half Marathon


I ran the NYC half marathon yesterday and as with all races, there were some good moments and some not so good ones.

The good:
* I finished the race!
* It was a beautiful day to run.
* After burning all those calories, I didn't feel guilty celebrating with a few beers.

The bad:
* My foot (which I injured a few weeks ago) hurt for about 9 out of the 13 miles.
* Because of my foot pain, I ran pretty slow and my time was really disappointing.
* An old woman passed me at mile 10 and as she did, asked if I was okay.

Overall, I feel okay about the run. Aside from the foot pain, I actually felt good as I was running. I wasn't really tired or winded. With that said, I'm determined that my running season can only get better from here. Cheers!

I'm sure your time is not bad. I'm starting my training in full gear tomorrow for S.F. in July. Are you in?
