Newport Half Marathon 10.13.13
Sunday will be my first half marathon in over a year. Which, given my track record (no pun intended) over the past 4-5 years – a tendency to sign up for road races on a whim, compounding multiple half marathons in the same year as an Ironman – says a lot.
This year has been challenging to say the least and I limited myself quite a lot because of the severity of my migraines.
Sunday is the Philadelphia Half Marathon. I am most definitely undertrained, but I know that once I toe the line I will finish.
For me this race is much less about finishing, or finishing in a certain time (I have no doubt this will not be a PR race). It is ALL ABOUT toeing the line.
I just want to wake up Sunday morning, migraine-free, and get to that starting line. That will be enough for me.
