I realize that I didn't give this update as soon as I should have. Anyhow, I finished, with a time of 2 hours, 6 minutes and 8 seconds!! I was exhausted afterwards though, mainly because I had pushed myself to run a lot faster than I trained for--I had been training at 9 km/hr, and ran at 10 km/hr. My legs were terribly sore for the next three days, but we gorged ourselves on ice cream. While I was running, I kept thinking to myself how much I hated running and that I would never run another half marathon, let alone a full marathon again!! Yet, that same night, I registered for the Niagara Falls International Marathon.
So now I am training for that. I think I may have a stress fracture though, so I've been taking a break this week. Not running however, makes me a bit anxious. Hopefully it is not a stress fracture, and it will heal soon.
