I did it. I completed the Country Music Marathon.
I didn't really train for it. I mean, I ran a couple of half marathons, but I didn't do any particularly long runs. At about mile 16, I started asking my self WHY I was doing this. It didn't make sense. I still haven't answered that. And while yesterday I thought, I never EVER want to run another marathon, today I'm thinking about which ones I should start planning for. I really am crazy.
Official finish time: 5:50:06
That's 45 minutes faster than Nike. I am improving! My half marathon was 2 hours and 35 minutes, which is faster (by a smidge) than I've ever run it. I don't know that I will ever run this particular marathon again. There was nothing wrong with it; I just want to see other places.
On a bright note, there were 330 people (out of 4373) who finished after I did. (Small victories...)
