Thanks, trini!
Half marathon? Yikes...the longest race I ever ran, back when I was in semi-decent shape, was a 5k. I finished, which was all I intended. Dunno my rank, even. ;-)
Yeah I just wanna finish too. I guess I just wanna do it to feel like I've accomplished it. The next thing I'm considering is a triathlon. That doesn't seem too bad in theory. I will ponder it while I munch on some chocolate brownie ice cream...
