But I just went for my first long run since. 14km in 1h21m, which is about on pace to complete the half in 2h2m if I can maintain that pace (in truth I was actually picking up pace for most of the run, so I'd likely have finished in under 2) The race is on Sept 9th, and I believe I'm ready. I was so disgusted by my time last year (2h36m) that I spent the last year training pretty rigorously so that I can at least be happy when I finish it <_< --- Assassins do it from behind. <cite>Dynalo posted [p:907186366] in My 2 hour ...
