Finally he was there: the day of my second half-marathon, because
running a half-marathon during a middle distance is something
else and not running a half-marathon. And I wanted to run a little
bit faster than in march where I needed 1:40:02h for this distance,
and so I got myself under a bit of pressure and trained reall
yhard for that day, because I didn´t know, if the course would
be so flat as well( she wasn´t) or if I had the shape of my life
at the 21st of march, okay she was at least better than in Bensheim…
Jan packed his bike in the car to attend me on the course and
to cheer me up with a friend of mine, Lisa and his parents.
My legs didn´t want to go any further after 10km( 46minutes –
I was satisfied). But as you know, I cannot give up and so I ran
on…
Luckily I did not have the pain I had in march, but I had to torture
myself really hard and I was really exhausted after I reach finally
the finish-line.
The clock stoped after 1:38:05h. Goal achieved, now the season
can come to an end.
Well, before I forget it, I reached the 5th place overall and
the 2nd place in my age-group. Stay healthy...
