Ok, so there is no Kabaty Forest half marathon. I just made it up. Originally I was going to do the Warsaw Half Marathon, but that got postponed to the fall and I had already been training so I didn't want to wait. Since the Kabaty Forest is just next to my apartment and I love to run in it I figured I could figure out a 21k distance there and it worked pretty well to do so. I chose a date and time, Friday June 19th to run at a 6:30 start time (actual start time a little after that). I had been running a lot around this time or a little bit later and it seemed a good time as not too many people are in the forest yet so I'd be mostly alone. However, I didn't want to be totally alone so Aya helped me out as my aid station to give me water and bananas at certain points.
It was a fun run and I finished at 1hr 58 minutes, actually a bit better than I thought I would since much of the running was on narrow trails that were winding and muddy, not ideal for a fast pace. Now that the race is over, do I keep training and run the real Warsaw 1/2 in the fall?
