Super Jock n Jill Half Marathon


I still can't believe it. After the HORRID time at SeaFair marathon on June 29th, I was pretty bitter about running/walking in general. I thought there wasn't a chance I'd get through the Super Jock n Jill half with any hope of finishing under 3 hours. SeaFair was incredibly hot, sticky, sickly, and horrible. That was by far, my worst race in 3:40. I felt like I crawled the whole thing and could barely walk... forget about running. So, I trained through the last two months, tried to stay positive, and worked on my "fitness". It paid off. I finished the Super Jock n Jill half marathon on September 1st in 2:41. I thought my watch was broken. I thought I missed part of the trail. I thought something had gone wrong...

Why do I have so much trouble giving myself credit for anything? I'm working on it... one step at a time.
