It's amazing to see that I definitely got faster. And yes, each race is different and unique, but I know that I am faster and feel much better when running longer distances. Haha...Long Beach, I stopped at 11 miles. I had hit a wall. And then my goal for Huntington Beach was to not stop. And I didn't. For OC, my new goal was to be under 2 hours. I beat that goal by almost 4 minutes. From Long Beach to OC, I have improved my time by almost 40 minutes. It's amazing to see what I have accomplished. Sometimes it just makes me speechless...

    1. Just click on Half Marathon in the post, and it will lead you to the 10 week training schedule. This time around though for the marathon training, I am putting all the strength training that I'm doing as well in the blog, so hopefully it might help someone out.
