Half Marathons Are Hard.

My half marathon was yesterday and guess what... it was really freaking hard. I finished, and I wasn't last. But I'm not happy with my time. Although, not unhappy enough to really want to run one again, haha. I think that's all for half and full marathons for me. Maybe when I'm old. A lot of old people run those things. I guess because they have so much time on thier hands... :-P Any way- it's just really freaking boring... like I've said before I would much rather concentrate on how fast I run than how far I run. I just don't have the strong desire to run a full marathon like I did before. A full marathon takes some SERIOUS dedication... how am I supposed to gather up all that will power and dedication when I'm not really sure I want to run it in the first place? It's not that it's too hard or too painful... it's just- boring.

We'll see. I may change my mind.

My next "challenge" is a 5k in June. It's called Flirt with Dirt . Should be fun :) I know it's a lot less than the half I just ran... 10 miles less to be exact... but I want to run it FAST. So I'm resting this week, then starting a training plan. I'm pretty sure I won't be sticking to ANY of the time restrictions, because that is just too slow. I'm running this 5k under 30 and that's all there is to it. I've had ENOUGH of my wimpy 5k times! It's time to get serious.

I love Josh. He is good to me. He came to my race and waited around for over 3 hours in nasty weather. I think he took a nap... but still :) He makes me happy. I just really want to make him proud.

That's about all I care to blog about at the moment.
