Like some other folks said you have the...Go for it! Like some other folks said you have the base and you have the experience. Don't doubt yourself and don't overthink it. Remember that your body can do more than your mind sometimes allows. I'm running a half this weekend with only crossfit and some track workouts under my belt within the last couple of weeks, I haven't run more than 3 and a half miles since my last half in May. I'll let you know how it goes!Meg Ghttp://megamusings.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-46896124467808294122011-07-13T21:38:03.857-04:002011-07-13T21:38:03.857-04:00this is pretty much my perfect summer weekend! poo...this is pretty much my perfect summer weekend! pool and lots of nature time!ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07204889856385422586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-45377700276178429682011-07-13T11:35:56.222-04:002011-07-13T11:35:56.222-04:00You can totally do it!

As long as you don't expect to PR, you should give it a shot!<br /><br />A few months ago, I almost ran a half marathon one morning even though I hadn't run more than 5 miles in 2 months. I was so mad there were no registration spots left. Sometimes it's just fun to see what our bodies can really do :)Jenhttp://www.runnerstrials.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-77810135992272344022011-07-13T09:06:44.842-04:002011-07-13T09:06:44.842-04:00You can totally do it in 4 weeks.You can totally do it in 4 weeks.Lizzy @ runbakeracehttp://www.runbakerace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-33960791930336150702011-07-13T07:45:49.762-04:002011-07-13T07:45:49.762-04:00I have an upcoming half that I am completely untra...I have an upcoming half that I am completely untrained for. I don't think it's crazy to think you can get ready for it in a short time, but I think you just need to think about how enjoyable an experience it will be. I keep weighing my options because I know a fast build-up then a slow race isn't my favorite thing....but totally doable! And if you want to do it, I say, DO IT!Beckyhttp://www.beckontherun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-35705705650438270212011-07-12T20:58:11.301-04:002011-07-12T20:58:11.301-04:00Doooo itttttttt!!!
(and I meant that comment for ...Doooo itttttttt!!!<br /><br />(and I meant that comment for both races). I think you will be fine during the 10-miler. You don't have to race it, you can take walk breaks if you need to, and we can go to Crane's beach afterword! So that reward will get you through! And if you do the 10-miler, you'll definitely know that you're ready for the half marathon in August. Are you signed up for the Rock 'n Roll in Prov?? Or are you doing a different one.Laurenhttp://www.healthontherun.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6626288962348691125.post-12945717001790636812011-07-12T18:14:18.870-04:002011-07-12T18:14:18.870-04:00nah, I don't think it's crazy.
