The half marathon that was not supposed to happen. I hadn't "trained" for it, all I did for the last 10 plus weeks was to coach a 10k clinic. And my hip was acting up, enough to make... read more

Small group tonight, many drop ins for our 6 hills repeat. Warmer than last night too even though the wind was as strong. Slow cool down back to the store. Very happy with the group and how it went.

Way to soldier on and make the most of it! I thought about you yesterday on my long run when I wanted to quit and asked myself "What would Sylvie do?" and then answered, "why, soldier on of course!" so I kept going. Cycling is so different than running and it sounds like you made a good trip out of. I haven't ridden with a group before; just go out and do my own thing.

Good job for sticking to it, even on your own. Very proud of you and your accomplishment. Next one will be better... and further. Big hugs!

Thanks guys! Bill, you made me smile when I read your comment! I kept saying to myself "You sure ain't gonna quit missy!" knowing full well I had no intention to give up. I did however, think about doing the whole distance but it would have taken me way too long so decided to stick to a nice number :) Thanks Jeffrey, I tell ya, I needed a hug at one point! And you're right, next one will be better, I'm already organizing it, over 30k!
