I finished the race in 2 hours 24.

Along the course I bumped into a guy who was about the same age as me who was also running for PSP, after a while of keeping pace with each other he dropped back at around  the 10 miles mark. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect finish, with about 100m to go I felt a hand on my back to turn and find him running next to me once again so we were able to cross the finish line together.

Distance: 21.8km // Time: 1:57:07

 Finished my first half marathon with my husband last November. It was definitely a wonderful feeling once I finished. 

 Completed San Diego half marathon 2012 and the Big Sur Half in 2013.  

I did it! 14.05.2017 Lattelecom Riga Marathon 2017. My first 21K 2:29:51

I completed the Bath Half Marathon to raise money for the Wiltshire Air Ambulance who I may have the pleasure of working within the future.

This is the biggest physical challenge I have ever done and hopefully now will not be my last.

Running a half marathon is never about winning, it's always about finishing. It's about beating your tired body with a strong mind. 

5 kms before the finish line my legs were shaking but I kept thinking "I can do it", and i could barely feel my legs, but I finished. Can't describe the happiness when you can actually do it.

 I completed my first half marathon when I was 11 in Des Moines, Iowa. 

Hated every mile! lol! 

As I was more cross-country skier before that competition then I hoped to my good shape what I reached from skiing. Running half-marathon was much harder for me than skiing for example 63 km with the skies.

First time running 21 km. My feet did not like it that much, but it was a nice experience. I am glad I did not sign up for a complete marathon.

Make it the entire 13.1 miles and have a decent finish time. 

I've managed to complete 4 half marathons - Liverpool in 2010, Blackpool in 2012, Preston in 2012 and Grizedale in 2015. Really enoyed all of them and the good thing about running is your always in a race with yourself which I like! Next step is to go on and do a full marathon!

 Not much to tell. This was one heck of a hilly 13 miles, but will all got it done. It was a great experience to share with several brothers.

Did many half marathons on NYC, best year was 2009 I think when I did all 5 of them for NYRR's 5-borough challenge.

21 km - 2.06hr

I've always had a love-hate relationship with running but I wanted to give it a try. It sounded challenging but doable so I asked my boyfriend if he would run with me. We went to Stuttgart, did the race, and I have to say I absolutely did not enjoy it. I've noticed that it is important for me to run in a setting that's pleasant to look at. Stuttgart was a little bit too unexciting for me and since I get bored in my head very easily, it soon started to feel like torture. I learned from this experience that you should run with people You know are fun to run with, that you should choose an interesting place to run (new city for example), and that you should take the training for a half marathon seriously. It did not help me to only run 15 k in training. I should have run longer distances even though it is said that that's not necessary.
