Today's update on my dithering - I have taken the plunge. My friend and I have entered the Saxon Shore HM on 17 June. Herne Bay to Whitstable and back.
She says we are going to have fun and I can have an ice cream afterwards!
My Asics plan generated. Preconditioning phase underway. It predicts a 2:10 finish time even though I asked for a target of 2:30. I am nervously excited.
Woo hoo, exciting isn’t it. I’ve also entered my first half but for October, given myself plenty of time 😂 2.10 -2.30 finish is a great first finish time x good luck x.
Very exciting! You'll rock it, I'm sure.
Ooh, ice cream! Well done 
Yay! I said procrastination ends eventually. So that's Phase 1 out of the way (for both of us)😄.
Just like all the training so far - take it steadily and enjoyably and that (surely those?) ice cream(s) will be yours - along with the bling. Oooh bling!!! Best wishes.
Good luck! Have fun 😃 👍🏃♀️
That looks like a beautiful half marathon, I'm sure you'll love it, especially with an ice cream at the end 
May I add you to our Events calendar?
Yes please! Then there is no way I can back out unless there are circumstances beyond my control, like unprecedented coastal erosion...
Oh congratulations! I've been following with interest, really hope it goes well after all this!
My friend ran 10 miles this morning. I have a bit of catching up to do!
Well done on making the decision. It made me giddy with nervous excitement once I completed the application. Then you need to knuckle down to the training and get some miles on the legs. I found it easier once it became a part of my weekly routine. I have just received my race pack and the nerves have kicked in.....have I done enough, will I get to the start or will I be stuck in the loo, will I get a last minute injury or illness etc. Lots of faffage with two weeks to go. Enjoy this training calm phase 😁
We sound very alike!
Good luck! I'd run for an ice cream.
Wonderful! And there will be ice cream! Best of luck with your training
If they had an ice cream truck everyone could chase to the end, I'm sure that would up the pace.
It's by the seaside so if there is no Mr Whippy ice cream van I will refuse to even start. 🍦🍦🍦
Thats the spirit! Start a protest! 😁
I'm sure you've noticed my Avatar on HealthUnlocked is...ice cream. A big one at Harry Potter in Orlando last summer. I just couldn't resist.
Then it looks like you picked the right race. That is a delicious 😋 looking cone
Woo hoo Go you Langley-Loper... great challenge, and one you are up to.😊xxx
Good luck with your training ( not in ice cream eating😉)x
I have a gold medal at ice cream eating already!
Well done! It's a lovely coast and I am sure the ice creams are fab!
All signed up for my first HM!
