Some post race reflections ๐ญ
Sometimes we donโt appreciate the effort and dedication required to achieve a big goal.
In my case, I thought just saying I was going to hit a certain time would be enough and on the day I could dig in and get there no matter how much it hurt.
Truth was I hadnโt done anywhere near enough training and wasnโt in the condition needed to get a sub 1.28 half marathon.
Obviously my initial reaction when I knew I was some way off was one of disappointment but this soon turned to a feeling of pride for some of the past races where Iโve maybe overlooked my achievements.
With no more races in the pipeline for sometime the plan is to have a good winter of training so that come 2024 we can right a few wrongs ๐ซก
