Training for my first half marathon....

(Why are there so many hills in my neighborhood?)

Hahahahaha...after running all race durations, I think I preferred the 1/2 in the end. Funny selfie!!!

[Jay Butterfield]

This is great! Nice use of perspective and framing

[Graeme Stevens]

Running. Why I own a car, Reason 328.

[Simply Amanda]

@graemestevens Hahaha...I want a shot of you running in the gas mask...and go:).

[Clare Gadsby]

haha ... good luck!

[summerfield]

you call this training? :-D wake up!

[Vera]

Gee.... I should probably train for something. A cooke-eating competition would fit me just right! :) Great photo with a story!

[Paul]

Think you need to stand up for that :D But good luck :)

[summerfield]

@vera365 - yes! two of us!

[gloria jones]

Training or malingering :)

[Leana Niemand]

@alophoto @jaybutterfield @graemestevens @alophoto @vera365 @paul10 @seattlite @seattlite @lyndamcg @leananiemand @jesperani Thank you, friends. You all cracked me up. Hopefully, I'll be off the floor soon and believe I can actually run that far. Right now, I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking.

[Simply Amanda]

How far is your farthest run?

[Erika]

@alophoto So far 10k is my farthest one.

[Simply Amanda]

@epcello Halfway thereish!

[Erika]

@alophoto Haha. "ish" Oh boy.

[Simply Amanda]

@epcello After I did my half, my first immediate though was, "How the hell can anyone do that all over again for a full?!" A few weeks later, I signed up for a full because I was halfway there. Full was one of my best ever experiences. Hope you love your race!

[Erika]

@alophoto Thank you for the encouragement! I really do want to do it and I know I'll love that I did it when I'm done.
