21k
Yesterday I ran my first 21k! Yay!!
It wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I train on footpaths and roads. We ran off-road for almost the entire route. We ran on gravel paths. We ran on undulating trails through pine forests. For about 5km we ran on sand. We kept running and after 1 hour 49 minutes and 28 seconds I was finished.
I sat in the park afterwards, met some Christchurch locals and drank a couple of litres of water to rehydrate. I thought about the stages of preparation and all the great running moments I've had over the past five months. It's been HEAPS of fun!
What next? Half-marathon? Marathon? Not sure but please, more.
