Ran my first half marathon last week Sunday

Boxing Ask the Trainer

I did it. Ran a half marathon in training last week Sunday. I did it in 3 hours, but I did it… lolol… I could do it in 2 and 1/2 hours though. For the first time, I walked a good bit of the distance… And the shoes I had on was not good for long distances. So, I started to get pains in my ankles, Achilles and ACL… But with the right shoes I can def do that in 2 1/2 hours.

I already did a 15k in 1 hour 30 minutes. So I know a half marathon can be done in 2 and 1/2 hours…

congratulations, if you done 15k in 1.30 that’s a pace of 6.00 so I think you are easily close to doing a half Marathon in well under 2.30 hrs.

well done
