run a half marathon (read all 2 entries…)
Great experience!

I ran in the Great Scottish Run half marathon yesterday. What an experience! It was very hot (26C) which made it very hard work but I covered the 13.1 miles in 2½ hours – which was my target time. Here are some photos. My longest practice run was 10 miles and those last three miles were really hard going. But I made it. I plan to do it again next year.

How I got started

I’ve been running on a treadmill for a few years – nothing much – about 6Km. Then I started running outside – first 9 miles then 10 miles. Before running the half marathon, 10 miles was the furthest I had ran.

I’ve cheered a couple of your goals.
