Ok so I ran/walked the Ogden 1/2 marathon... it was brutal especially since I didn't train. Well that's not true, for 1 week before the race I woke up and ran 3 miles everyday. That's training enough right? I made myself do it because I keep signing up for these expensive races and don't train for them and always bump down to the easier race. (I was initially signed up for the full marathon but whatever.) I'm glad that I at least finished and I had a really good time running the race. I love being at the starting line and the energy that's just bouncing off each other. I did not however like the 2 obnoxious girls wearing a shirt that said "I have rheumatoid arthristis and you're still behind me" First of all I think that's rude. That's not what races are about, I think it's wonderful that you're conquering that battle and running a 1/2 marathon. But it seriously made me feel bad.... I guess I'm a baby, and I'm sure it was just for fun or whatever, but it rubbed me the wrong way.... maybe bacause they beat me?
