Half Marathon This Weekend

CR83 - 4-3-2008 at 06:04 PM

7:00 AM Sunday morning I'm finally running this fucking thing. The closest I got in training was 10.2 miles but I know I can do the 13 point-whatever it is. I'm pumped.

After this, my goal is to bench press 300 pounds by my birthday on 9-14.

good luck, chris.
i know you're been working hard in preparation.

Thanks BD. Yeah, it hasn't been 100 easy so this makes it all the sweeter. I just wish I would have lost more wieght but my diet has been shit. We'll get there. There is going to be 10,000 runners. It will be insane.

Done and fucking done. 2 hours and 11 minutes. I finished 4,130th place. I'd totally do it again. Now, I rest this week then begin my trek to bench press 300 pounds by 9-14.

These pictures were taken at the 10 mile mark of the run.

Congratulations. I just did my first competitive 5k the other week. Looking to try a half marathon by the end of the year.
