Registering for my first half! *eek!*

[setsail1999]

A friend talked me into doing a half marathon this fall. Eek! I just started running last summer but I'm already up to 6miles and have all summer to train. I'm so excited but so nervous! I've only done a few 5Ks but hopefully I can do a longer race over the summer to help my confidence. I was going to wait until I tried longer distances but figures what the hell, might as well sign up now before I lose my nerve. I have the registration page open, just trying to hit enter lol. Luckily my friend is there to help me through the start and my Dh is so excited for me so I have lots of support.

just 8 months ago I was struggling through the first weeks of C25K lol.

Your experience sounds like me. I graduated from C25K, ran a few 5ks. Decided this February to conquer the half. My first is June 1. Sounds like you have great support!

Hit enter!!

You'll do great! Training with friends (human and K9 alike!) is very helpful. I was the one who encouraged two friends to do our first half together and I don't know that any of us would have made it through training w/o each other - it was a great experience. Have fun

So excited for you!!

[agswife]

Good for you! I'm contemplating my first half, too. Eek!

I too just signed up for my first half at the end if September and had some similar feelings.
