Training going great!

[EMHDad]

I just want to celebrate my training. Im working towards my first half marathon. I hit 8 miles in 1:22:40. I am trying to get the half marathon in 2:10:00 in order to qualify for an under 5 hour corral at the Disney marathon. I am hitting a 10:20 mim/mi. I need to add 5 miles and hit a 10 min/mi. My next long run is 9.5 in 10 days. I am excited and beginning to gain the confidence not the my half marathon could happen, but will happen. Im not trying to boast, just in a good mood and want to share the joy.

Congrats on your progress! And it's always good to recognize how far you have come (especially on the occasional bad day!) Sounds like your goal is within reach. You may be surprised what race day brings. That extra boost of "whatever" can make you even faster.

Good luck with your training. Let us know how your goal race goes.

WAY TO GO

From my own experience, I would think you should have no problem meeting your goals. My time of 1:20:14 for the 8.3 mile relay portion of the W&D put me in Corral C of the Marathon this January. Continue on with a good training program and 4:30:00 could be in your future.

Good luck and keep us updated because we're rooting for you.
