One race is in the books. Two more have been registered for and are coming up in the next month. What I haven't decided on are the Cowtown races. I completed the half marathon last year and I felt pretty good about it. I will say that last hill at mile 9 is a killer but the rest was a nice, fairly flat race.
What I don't know is if I want to do it again. I know it would be a good challenge for me. I know I would have just come off of a 15K and a 10K a week or two before. I also know that I could just do the 5K or 10K the day before, since I've never run those.
A year ago, the Cowtown half marathon was the last race I did in 2018 and part of me wants to do it again as a part of this journey back. I think I'm going to wait on my decision until after the Hot Chocolate 15K. That will be the biggest hurdle for me and even though I've done it multiple times before, this time I'm older, heavier and I haven't trained as much as I have in the past. So it will be the determining factor.
If I feel good afterwards, then I'll seriously consider Cowtown. If not, there are plenty more half marathons out there for me to do this year! And I already have them on the list!
