I think it’s safe to say I’m still floating on my sub-2 PR from Sunday’s half. I’m proud of myself and I’m not afraid to say that I am. The old me might’ve been afraid to. The new me is shouting it from the rooftops.

This post makes me smile!! I'M PROUD OF YOU!!So I've got 6 wks until my next Half Marathon (I'm obsessed with getting the sub-2 before 2011 end!) Have you posted your training plan anywhere that you used for the YGG and your sub-2?? I know I need to hit up the speed intervals more, but I'm curious as to the details of your training… if you don't mind sharing…
WOW Kerrie! You look so athletic in your “now” pic!!! Amazing! So proud of you!!!!!
Great inspiration!! I love that you look so happy in your “Now” pic. I'm looking forward to feeling that happy again running once I loose the rest of this baby weight and can run fast again. 🙂
