This weekend I was registered for a half marathon. It was supposed to be my PR race. I maintained a good long run base after PHM '14. 3 weeks ago, I ran the most kickass 10 miler I've ever done. Granted, in the 3 weeks since, I haven't gotten as much in as I would have liked, but it wasn't *that* drastic.
Anyway, there were some course surprises (cooler temps, muddy trails, super-sized hills) and I just didn't have it. I did set a PR: worst non-Disney half I've ever run. Seriously. It was almost 10 minutes slower than my first ever half. Awesomesauce.
But, today I picked myself up. Wiped off my shoes and am ready to start a new journey.
