Peace Love and Ice Cream : Thinking Out Loud #6 - My \'Non\' Goals for my first Half Marathon!

Tue, 21 Oct 2014 14:30:21 +0000

Yes! To finish is always my #1 goal, and I think it's often overlooked. You never know what could happen on race day, even for seasoned runners. Good luck with the rest of training! My recent post Meal Plan Monday #2

Sounds great! We're not big ricotta fans either, so I'd sub 2% cottage cheese, same as I do in my lasagna.

I've done two-a-day workouts, but I've never attempted 2-a-day runs. Then again, my body can't handle more than 3 runs/week, so there's that. ha Great job!

So true! I love this post. I read a couple baby books, but neither really fit my son. I jokingly refer to him as the "Unhappiest Baby on the Block." Ha.

Oh no! I experienced terrible hip pain last year after my first half marathon. It took about 8 months and some PT, so hopefully yours won't be nearly as long-lasting.

Thanks for posting! I had to quit cross country in high school due to runner's knee, and during my first (and only) half marathon last year, I had terrible hip pain that kept me from running for many months after the race. I definitely think the two were related. My recent post What I Ate Wednesday

This can be so hard. You're totally right. I find it's much harder though in winter (holiday season) than in summer. People are much more likely to set out fruits and veggies in warmer months, but fall and winter? "Bring on the decadence!" seems to be the common theme. My recent post Workout Revised

I've never done a mud race, and I've never made crepes. I love crepes though, so perhaps I'll give them a shot some time.
