Humid and foggy day. I dressed in capri and t shirt with ball hat. I could have done shorts and tank. Some chaffing. Fun party and band after. New Orleans is a very awesome city to visit.

This was just a training run and I was just happy to have a break from the snow.

Steady is our walk. Ignoring the pain that is radiating from my feet, I continue to place one foot in front of the other. Again I wonder, “Why am I doing this?”

I will assume you have not run consistently more than 6 miles and have never completed a half-marathon. I believe running your first half-marathon is a big task which requires dedication and work.
