Second worst

Oct 8,

When you train for something, and train hard, it is disappointing when you don't get the results you were hoping for.  Today I looked back to my other half marathon results and, although yesterday's timing was not my worst, it was pretty close. The second worst to be exact. Although I know the weather had an impact, and there is not much you can do once you get a cramp, I am disappointed because the entire time during training I ran between a 9:30 and a 9:45 minute mile. That is far better than the 10:22 (on average) that I ended up with yesterday. And it is frustrating because I just don't know how to prevent a cramp.  I will get over it for sure, but for now I am still sad.
