I'm with you, I hate to train but love the races. Although, I can't just go whip out a half marathon like its nothing. I did run my 10k recently, but was very under trained and I was slow. I was okay with slow because I expected it, and I even did better than I expected :) You are amazing in your dedication to fitness! I admire your running AND your swimming. I hope this race course is a preclude to a pregnancy this time as well!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507432917936364757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-61356519905136867602013-05-20T19:45:36.919-07:002013-05-20T19:45:36.919-07:00wow! i am just amazed by you! super impressive! an...wow! i am just amazed by you! super impressive! and i totally hope this ends up being your lucky course!

Good for you for giving yourself permission to "pass this one by" if you can even call it that (since a half marathon is still challenging in and of itself). I have never been good at going with the flow when plans need to change....Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08309531781457230910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808830305872285145.post-68793376465997130352013-05-18T16:32:01.950-07:002013-05-18T16:32:01.950-07:00It takes a lot to realize your own limitations and...It takes a lot to realize your own limitations and take things easy. Not everyone can do it, and they end up pushing themselves and getting hurt. That's a great time, especially for not having enough time to train properly!
