I'm in the process of training for not one, but two half marathons. This
one and this
one. And on Saturday, I set out on a goal for 15 miles. Well, I did 14, but walked the last one. Do I care that I walked that last mile? Nope! Because I ran
13.12 miles in
1:59:38!!!

| Still so happy about my run! |
The fastest I ever ran 13.1 miles was in 2:13, so this was a major PR for me, even if it was on a training run. Needless to say, I had a very happy St. Patrick's Day! Even if instead of drinking, I was running my little legs off, I'd rather have ran than drank. How did you spend your St. Patrick's Day?

Awesome! Congrats. :) I got myself a 13.1 PR on St Patty's Day, too. Go us!!
Hooray! Go girl! I rode my beach cruiser to lunch HAHA that was the extent of my exercise Saturday
Wow girl, good for you!! I wish I had the endurance to do a half. Weird question - what brand shoes do you have? Just asking because I've always worn Nike for running and have been thinking about switching brands.
You go girl! That is awesome! And looks like you had beautiful weather to run in.
YAY!!! Nice work lady. :) You rock.
Nice work! That's my next goal for a race too...sub 2!
UM that is incredible, girl!
Seriously go you - that's a big deal!
Keep it up :)

Great accomplishment. It must have felt amazing. I spent st pattys day making out with my first shamrock shake. Yum!!!
Wow, that is such a great accomplishment. Congratulations!
That's amazing Amanda! You can definitely run a sub two in your half now....especially with the crowds and race atmosphere pumping you up!
Great running, you had some lovely views
xoxo

you crazy girl!
but glad you're having fun :) good luck with the training!
You smashed your PR, great job!! I saw so many people out running today it made me feel like I should be running. Too bad I just don't have the time, I just live vicariously through you. :)
I can't believe how great you look after all that running!! I need some of your motivation!
You are amazing! You knocked so much time off - that's exciting! I love that you spend a good chunk of your Saturday running while most of the world just relaxes and indulges. I've actually started running again - you would be proud! Definitely not 15 miles but I have to start somewhere :)
get the sticker!! yayayayayay!
Nice work, girl! That's an amazing time!
Congrats to my little speedster!!!!!!

Way healthier than me. I don't think I've even walked that far in a while.
You go girl!! So proud of you...and you look stunning!

... Wow. I could never do that in a million years. I can barely run one mile...

I'm officially in awe, congrats! What lovely photos!
So inspiring! Can't wait to run one someday!
