Congrats mate! I remember when I finished my first half I thought "that's was nuts I'm never going to do a full marathon" but later I relised I was correct and I'll never do a full. Half is fun. I do hope you get 10k subs and do the full!
-
Sooooooooooooo Happy for you, you crushed it!!!! You will want to do a Marathon. It's misery and magical at the same time.
-
Sub 2 hours for your first half marathon is amazing! Thats really a massive achievement.
-
Congrats on the sub 2h, Daniel! You nailed it =D
-
Congratulations! I just ran my first sub 2hrs half marathon yesterday, and I felt like I was fighting for my life the entire time. You did so well! I’ve said this before, but the combination of you and Phily gives such a unique perspective on the sport of running.

Daniel, you crushed it! Love watching the journey from not running to doing your first half! So cool that your dad made it out to see you reach your goal. My mom and brother came to see me finish my first marathon. Knowing they were at the finish line waiting for me kept me going forward even though the last 4-6 miles were tough

Running is much better together. Well done for finishing, hope the recovery goes well!
-

Well done Daniel! I am always the same at 11 miles. Mentally it’s the worst, because you’re almost there .. but not quite🙈

Incredible!! Congratulations, smashed it!!🎉

Smashed it!! Your thoughts on the race are exactly what i was thinking after my first half! ‘This is so hard, no way i could ever do more..’ week later: ‘I could run a marathon i think!’ 😂. Second half marathon will feels so much better!!
-
Good to hear how you feel about your half was the same way I felt when I ran my first full marathon. Enjoy your recovery and great job running. Congrats.

You did a great job to finish, and to do it in under 2:00 is amazing! Well done!👏

Well done, Daniel, this is really awesome ! I think we all started a race (or multiple races) too quickly. This seemed like a great race to do, and you crushed it !!!
