Ran my first "unofficial" half marathon! As I started, my calfs were super tight, ankles and shins were tight and hurting! I was a little freaked out that I might die before mile 7 or 8! Finally by mile 3ish I was able to get relaxed and settled into a good, enjoyable pace! (This usually only takes 1 mile!) Miles 8-10 sucked and were really painful, my body was hurting. However, by mile 10.5ish I hit a second wind and was able to finish strong! Proving to myself I CAN do hard things! Overall, I think the half is a good distance! Hard, but didn't feel like I was gonna die! Gonna kill this marathon! (Really happy with this long distance running pace!)
