So I ended Week 1 with 13 miles. It started off well - smooth, strong, and controlled. Cold day but decided to go with shorts anyway (I always think of my buddy, Kenny, when I do this) and felt fine doing so... package went a bit numb during the run... I really hate that. Last 2 miles were tough but I pushed through. Legs were getting sore and heavy and I wanted to walk but kept thinking that I had to keep going and that I couldn't walk in a marathon. I kept running.
Walking into my house I was met with a warm family, pizza, shower, and cold beer. I hurt but the pain subsided and warm dry clothes, big chair, blankets, and the knowledge that I had completed my goal made me feel much better. Motrin helped.
