Run, Carrie, run - the re-run

I cannot believe I'm doing this.  Really. 

I got a sense of exhilaration simply from filling in the online form and paying the entry fee, but now the realisation is creeping up on me - in six months' time, I am going to run 13.1 miles. 

A half-marathon.

Seriously.

As you know if you've read any of my blog before, I've run two 5ks and a 10k, so a half-marathon is the logical step.  I say "logical", it's not logical at all.  The 10k was a dreadful, dreadful experience; admittedly mostly because it was bucketing with rain and I was horrifyingly cold and miserable the entire way round. 

So I guess the thing to do is to keep my fingers crossed for sunshine on March 29th.  And to keep training.  Wish me luck.
