t-minus 6 days...half marathon!

I posted on this board early in my pregnancy with issues about difficulty running...getting out of breathe, legs getting tired, adjusting to a snails pace.  Anywho, with much support from you lovely ladies, I got back on the wagon and am prepared to run a half-marathon next Sunday.  I have a shirt that says "I'm running for 2...so its like running a full marathon!".  I'm a big dork, but I'm very proud.  So thanks one and all for the encouragment!

  • wow! Very impressive! I was a big runner before getting knocked up and the 2 half marathons were hard enough for just me...I can't imagine doing one now! Good luck- you'll be great out there!!

  • Thanks again everyone!  I feel more accomplished doing this than I did in running the full marathon.  My bladder, however, will probably not appreciate it as much!

  • That's so great! I've got one coming up in three weeks and I think I might borrow your shirt idea if you don't mind!
  • That's awesome.  Good luck!
  • Good luck!!!  I ran a 1/2 today and it was tough but totally worth it.  I LOVE your shirt idea!  Wish I had thought of it ;)

  • Good luck, and I just want to say I am so jealous (since a m/c in Aug I am too scared to run this pg)  Just take your time and remember to listen to your body!
