2015 GA Publix Half Recap
Second half marathon of 2015. I've been excited about this since registration in 2014.
They started predicting rain a few days before the race. I was hoping it wouldn't do anything until after, but, unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans.
I got to the race 45 minutes before the start. Spent that time getting my headphones, phone, and gels ready to put in my FlipBelt.
A friend found me about 15 minutes before the started and handed me a trash bag to use while waiting in my corral. Thank goodness for that. Kept me dry until it was time to start.
Even though I am not a fan of running in the rain, it felt fantastic out there. The first half of the race went by pretty quick. It wasn't raining so that helped. I did have to keep my eye on the puddles in Atlanta since I didn't want to get my feet drenched before I was even half-way through.
The crowd support was incredible despite the weather. So thankful for that.
Before I knew it, I was more than half way. The rain started to pick up a little bit around Piedmont Park but wasn't enough to slow me down. I kept gone going.
Between GT and Centennial Park, I was getting tired. I knew I wasn't going to PR. So I told my myself to push for a course PR. I did just that. I finished with a time of 2:05. Course PR. Last year's time was 2:09.

Change
So last week after months and months of thinking it over, I decided I would finally sign up for my certified personal training course. I am excited to learn more about the one thing I am passionate about - fitness. I am ready to help others reach their goals. :)
My current goal is be done and certified by September. I have already signed up for my CPR/AED training, which takes place in August. I would aim for an earlier time, but have to have that class first before I can take the final.
Here's to my future! :)
P.S. Haven't forgotten about my other recaps. Life has gotten in the way. I will try and get them up soon though.
