It's not always about it how great you did - sometimes it's even more admirable that you just stuck with it when it sucked! So you should feel really great about that:) <br /><br />And remember, for every bad run, there is usually 10 good ones!Candice @ ChiaSeedMehttp://chiaseedme.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068369979023589368.post-75909433281865874632010-11-01T11:43:10.359-04:002010-11-01T11:43:10.359-04:00Yeah my first and only half marathon experience wa...Yeah my first and only half marathon experience wasn't so super either.

BUT -- it's impressive that despite all your setbacks, you finished anyway! That's a long way to run with cramps and legs that feel like lead! I think this experience will only make you stronger!! And hopefully your next race (whether it be that 30K or something else) will go much better for you!Lauren @ Health on the Runhttp://www.healthontherun.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068369979023589368.post-59746758835301646172010-10-29T15:54:36.812-04:002010-10-29T15:54:36.812-04:00I'm sorry your race didn't turn out the wa...I'm sorry your race didn't turn out the way you planned but keep your positive attitude!!

It was not perfect but now looking back I can see that I learned a lot about myself. Look for a positive in your race and then move forward.Bekah @ runtrackmindhttp://www.runtrackmind.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068369979023589368.post-46378252715674280402010-10-27T20:13:42.364-04:002010-10-27T20:13:42.364-04:00Ugh, sounds like everything was getting in your wa...Ugh, sounds like everything was getting in your way during that race, but you know what? You didn't give up. You finished and honestly, that way more than I would have done!<br /><br />I love your attitude about this though. Way to not let a bad race get to you! <br /><br />There will always be bad races, bad days, bad training runs, bad eating days, etc., but learning from them and brushing them off are truly what counts. Bad race or not, you kicked butt!Maria @ Oh Healthy Dayhttp://ohhealthyday.comnoreply@blogger.com
