I'm up to 5 miles, so 1/2 will be a lot of growth in just 9 months. I fully expect to have to walk a lot of it since training in the winter will get tough in Nebraska. But my goal is to run it all in under 2 hours.

Right now I'm trying to work on my speed more than my endurance. I had a 53 year old guy in my last 5K; he was averaging 7 min miles without seeming too worked up. I was humbled.

I have to say that I'm thoroughly enjoying racing. I have a 5K in two weeks, and it can't come quick enough. Best GAL I've come across for me.
