Ah, it was ...I just made it back from the hot tub. Ah, it was wonderful! I love relaxing weekends!<br /><br />Toni... My best time actually was my first half marathon (I have only done two... the second was only a 2 months after the first.) While I detest running indoors, that was how I started running. I think that running on the treadmill actually helped quite a bit in the beginning, because it forced me to maintain a constant speed. I always ran three days a week. One day was my long run day, then I had a medium distance day where I tried to run a tiny bit faster, and than my short running day which usually was also like a speed training day. It helped to run with people who were faster than me, because I pushed myself more. The funny thing about my first half marathon was that I told my friends to expect me to finish at an 11 to 1130 pace time, but I ended up finishing in a 945 pace time. I was just really into the race and happened to have an amazing running day. Some days are just like that. I wish you luck on your training, and I cannot wait to hear how your half goes! When are you planning to run it?Jeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14034154939064403547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3075951434939610815.post-17006272004635795422010-07-17T19:03:03.116-04:002010-07-17T19:03:03.116-04:00ahhhhh relaxation!!!
