That would have been fun. I, too, went into this event with basically no training. But, I wasn’t doing the full like you did. I was just doing the half. I do, however, plan to do the full in Vegas next year. And, while I was running the half on Sunday, I had lots of thoughts about running a full in the future. I’m sure I can do it when the time comes, but after my experience with running a half with no training, I definitely have to make sure I have some training before running a full. Definitely. I couldn’t walk right for almost 3 days following the RNR San Antonio!Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00353717802641548195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-15333681051811708402013-11-21T10:40:22.307-06:002013-11-21T10:40:22.307-06:00Congrats on another race in the books!

Chicago is the first one I've done where everyone was in it for the full and I appreciated it! I didn't get jealous by anyone around me who had a half bib on or spend hours resenting the relay people!Kim Dresdnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03098815348905124066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-77902635174048575142013-11-20T23:28:26.630-06:002013-11-20T23:28:26.630-06:00Congrats on finishing despite the hot weather!

I agree that running a marathon with a half marathon in the mix is challenging. I found the same to be true in Montreal. It was an R 'n' R race and those races really promote the half marathon. It was a lonely course after we split from the half. I find that I have no desire to repeat any marathon course once I'm done. I keep joking to my husband that I might need to move for the sake of new running routes. <br /><br />I cannot find a Thanksgiving Day race in my area to save my life! I began my own tradition of running a solo double digit run in the morning.<br /><br />I love my Vitamix and use it every day at least once. Though I can definitely see you doing an Ironman! The Maldives…I'm jealous!Aimee R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04561153129959868616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-72585207949841822652013-11-18T18:45:55.372-06:002013-11-18T18:45:55.372-06:00Great job finishing your race regardless of the he...Great job finishing your race regardless of the heat. <br /><br />I love that you run an 8-miler on Thanksgiving! I aim for a few miles too the day of. I swear it revs me up for the rest of the day of cooking and prepping.<br /><br />I hope you have a fantastic week. Safe travels. I put Vitamix on my wish list too :)safirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13087146668110437915noreply@blogger.com
