How I did it
It made me

How I did it: two to three short runs during the week, one long run - increasing mileage on weekends. stretch. stretch. hydrate. get support. get proper shoes. do it over and over and eventually you'll get there. Read how I did it…
It made me
sore but excited
How I did it: Well my IT band (outer knee) didn't bother me AT ALL this time. First time in a long time. I had the knee band with me the whole time in case it kicked in. Finally my knee is adjusting. This is good news for the 1/2 marathon. So, all the usual suspects: carried water, hydrated consistently throughout. GU, energy gel, took that throughout. Key is to hydrate and energize before you're feeling depleted. Also I had great music on my ipod nano… Read how I did it…
It made me

How I did it: a lot of walking occurred. The important part is the movement and the mileage. The body will remember and I will build up the running part eventually. Read how I did it…
