1/2 Marathon

I did it. All 13.1 miles. Yeaaaaaa. 2 hours, 4 minutes, 23 seconds. That's 9:30 minute miles, which is damn good if I did say so myself. :-)

However, I've had a bad headache ever since, probably due to an electrolyte imbalance (I didn't drink enough after the race). For once, I really do need an energy drink. Even though there are better ones then gatorade out there, that's what I have. But's its taken me a while to get it into my system. Considering I'm dealing with those symptoms and that I have a test on tuesday, the prop analyses are going to be delayed again. But don't worry, I have all Wednesday night to set aside for the next few. :-)

Oh, and did I mention I was talked into the Marathon training? CIM in December? I'm not sure how it happened, but I am signed up. Something took over my body for a while in there. :-)

    Yes, I'm sure they really had to twist your arm to get you to sign up for the marathon. :-) Congratulations, hon.

    (And as for Ania's comments, perhaps we should bounce back from that dehydration thing before we add beer. Just a suggestion.)
