A Half Marathon The Easy Way

These people are doing a half marathon the hard way = standing up. This photo was found on the Runner’s World website, where you can find an abundance of information and inspiration about their specialty, which is traversing all sorts of distances while standing up.

The above photo was on a page on the Runner’s World website which addressed the subject of having a party after a half-marathon. Doing a half marathon at race-pace is a fine excuse for a party.

The easy way to do a half marathon is to do it sitting down.  That’s what I did today, with another half marathon rowing session online.  This time, the company who inspired me to keep rowing the whole distance was a guy in France who joined just in the nick of time before I pressed the start button.

I’m sure that I rowed a little faster and managed to do without stopping even once, because guy in France maintained a steady pace and provided some inspiration. But today’s marathon was definitely not at a race pace and therefore it was no cause for a party, like the runners enjoyed after their HM.

This was an easy way to burn 1,207 calories in less than an hour and 40 minutes.
