I decided to do a half marathon this year mostly to get ready for the triathlon I wanted to do this summer. I really like triathlons b/c of the swimming and I really don't like running which is the hardest for me. So I thought if I could get the running down it would be a piece of cake for the tri. I trained for 3 1/2 months almost every saturday morning doing a long run and a couple shorter runs during the week plus cross training. I had hoped to at least do it at a 10 minute mile but I finished with a 9:34 minute mile and my finish time was 2:05. So I was really happy about it. It was a totally flat course which is why I did that specific race (there are some cooler courses like the rock and roll run in Seattle but has way too many hills). This one was in Snoqualmie and I got to run right under Mt Si where Bart proposed to me.
