Worth running it for the name alone.  Wink

An old coach used to call these "one in the bank," as you build great fitness grinding through a race like this and can "withdraw" at the next one.

Good on ya' for racing it!

Steady is our walk. Ignoring the pain that is radiating from my feet, I continue to place one foot in front of the other. Again I wonder, “Why am I doing this?”

I will assume you have not run consistently more than 6 miles and have never completed a half-marathon. I believe running your first half-marathon is a big task which requires dedication and work.

My training was taking off. I had never felt stronger. I was making bigger strides than I ever had. I was stronger and faster than I had imagined myself ever being.
