I ran the same half marathon as pinkpeony6210 yesterday and ended up with a new PR of 2:26:05! It was 10 minutes faster than my last half in November.
With everything that happened and the terrible night sleep I had after finding out about BIL, I considered not running. I'm glad I did. It was actually very therapeutic. BIL, SIL, and my niece and nephew were in my thoughts for every step.
Congrats on the PR! I think you would've regretted not running it. Running is very therapeutic and gives lots of time for reflection. I'm so sorry to hear about your BIL!
