Last Sunday was a race day for me. I am gearing up for the Columbus Half Marathon in October, which is a huge fundraiser for Kaitrin's Klub. My goal is to finally break 2 hours and Sunday's race put me 4 minutes closer to that goal! And as the big fundraiser approaches, I have been contemplating the full marathon in Columbus..."have been", well let's just say that around mile 11 of this past race, I decided with the utmost certainty that I in fact will NOT be running the full. I think that 'halfs' are my thing. I'll stick with what I can seem to handle.
I want to thank Denise, whom I met warming up in the parking lot, for keeping me company before the race. It was a great day to race and the course was very nice (not many hills and along the river). I'll learn not to bank on power gel being at mile 5 and 9...bring your own no matter what. Who runs a race on just a banana? Yep...that'd be me.
And as always...if you are running a race and want to run for a charity, Kaitrin's Klub will be more than happy to send a race packet out to you.
