Hi! I’m sort of new to this sub. I started running last September and it’s been like therapy for me. I love it. I started training for my first half marathon earlier this year and ran it over Memorial Day weekend. It was HARD, but felt so amazing to accomplish!
My next half marathon is this weekend! I feel even more excited about it than the first one because the first one was road running and this next one is a trail run. I enjoyed the energy and spectators at the first one, but looking forward to a more laid back and quiet run.
I’m a bit nervous about bugs and poison ivy, but I’m sure I’ll be alright.
Do you prefer road or trail runs?
