First Half Marathon in the books and done back at home. This was my longest race ever and man what a journey to get here. Life changes, cutting almost 25 lbs, more mileage. I don’t think I’ve ever pushed my body to this limit. I started to cramp at about Mile 11, where I said ok I can go slow. I kept my pace almost the entire race. I thought I was doing wayyy better than I expected. Mile 12.54 (I checked), tightness in both my calves to the point I couldn’t move but I kept telling myself “LEGS JUST GIVE ME TWO MORE MILES”. Not the last half mile, not another mile, give me two. I didn’t work this hard to come up short but I finished. The video looked great, I was in pain, but I finished. It’s time to rest and get back into it. I want to crush my next half marathon time. Now that I have a baseline, I can only go up. Thanks to the guys as well for constantly pushing me. Shoutout dmvtechrep for keeping me outfitted in the best gear. This was my first long distance race in the Metaspeed ...
