I dreamt last night about my first half-marathon race. I had a good start, the legs were feeling great and at 10 km my time was 1:14. Couldn’t have asked for a better start. Then I turned a corner and in front of me was a suspension bridge. Runners had to climb stairs to the very top and run across the bridge on the cables.
Um, excuse me? You can’t be serious!
I turned around and abandoned the race. I didn’t want the medal that badly.
You will love the race, don’t worry! Once that first 10k is done, it just becomes… I don’t know… Easier.
Haha! Easier?! Not in my experience during my training runs. Lol!! But thanks!
But the actual race is different… It’s like you’re accomplishing something amazing! The week before mine, I bailed on my last training run at 14k and thought there was no way I was ready… But I was!
