2011 Goal - Run a Half Marathon. Done.
One thing I didn't expect leading up to the race and during the race was the extreme knee pain I would experience. I'm a busy person. I over commit. I don't like to say no. These three statements lead to a disaster when attempting to train for a half marathon alone. I was convinced that I didn't need a proper training program to learn to run. Wrong. Before 2011 I had never run more than 10 minutes consecutively. I am the person they develop training programs for. I've always wanted to be a runner so I put my mind to it and made it happen. I also got a side of 4 months of Physical Therapy to go with it. Lesson Learned. Training Program Booked. My target return to racing is the SF First Half Marathon at the end of July. I am proud to say I will be training with Marathon Matt!
