1/2marathon distance done.!!!!

[samsonandrew]

This morning I am proud and very pleased to report to you that I ran 22 k. My longest ever distance in 2 hours fourteen mins. Garmin says a 1/2 marathon in 2 hours 8 mins. I am over the moon. It's all down to c25k and you my friends on this site. Onwards and upwards I always say, but time for a rest and a warm shower. Xxxxxx

Fabulous! Well done Great time for a half marathon too. Are you going to book in for a HM event?

I'm working may way up to that distance - but I think it's going to take me a while. lol

Thank you. I was thinking about the Blenheim palace half in October but it a lot of money to enter. I'll keep practising just for the fun of it.

Well done - that is fantastic and you must feel ecstatic right now! Don't think I'll be up for a HM for a while, but I have cracked 10k and am now hoping to do a 10 miler in October. What a great programme this is! Beautiful photo too btw☺

Longer distances come with time. I'm following my Garmin training plan and I think that really helps. Good luck in October.
