It Keeps Getting Better Because I Got Sole

by // // Comments off

This is the year.

I can feel it.

This will be the year that I shave 10 20 minutes off my half marathon time to finish under two hours again.

I see a lot of speed training, hill training, intervals and strength training in my future.

And it started yesterday starts today.

Step back.  Gonna come at you fast.

Hold on.

It keeps getting better.

The online application for the NYC Marathon opens at noon today.  I’m keeping my fingers, toes and laces crossed again until April when the lottery selection starts.  I believe 2012 is my year to run it.

I can feel it.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

I got soul sole, but I’m not a soldier.

    You go girl. I wish you all the luck in the world. Got my fingers, toes & eyeballs crossed for ya & a prayer for good measure. Love the song choices. Hey, I was looking for you in the crowd & didn’t see you. Disappointment sets in! 🙁 Happy New Year & have a great day

    I’m hoping to get about 15 minutes knocked off mine. I ran my first in April and will be running the same one again this coming April. I finished in 2:28 last year but my fastest half was 2:19. I want under 2 hours but only recently started running 9-9:30 pace for the long run so it may be a stretch for me to try for under 2 this year. I am going to strive for 2:10-2:15 though!! GOod luck to you!!!!

    I always marvel at the hard work and practice it takes to get this done.

    Great song to go with the theme!

    Happy New Year!
