I’m a bit late in blogging about my Half Marathon but half term got in the way! If you read my blog you will know that I have been following the Chi Running Intermediate Half Marathon Training Program. Training had gone pretty well and I lined up at the start line on Sunday 20 February feeling pretty relaxed apart from the normal pre-race jitters with approximately 8,000 other runners...

Now that I’ve had some time to let the experience of my 1st half simmer for a week or so, I have a laundry list of observations and thoughts. Pasta dinner is essential. I was pretty good about staying off my feet the day before the race, and the short 2 miler was a nice [...]
