Since the race...

...I've been having a heck of a time with my training. Everything feels 10 times harder. Physically my body is having issues handling the distances. I think this is due to the fact that I literally went from sitting on the couch to doing long distance training. It has only been 5 months since I started running, I ran a half marathon about 3.5 months after I started running and I'm approaching my full marathon. Even though my body hasn't been agreeing with me I am determined to finish this race. After the full I will probably take a small(ish) break from the long distances and focus on the shorter 10K distances and potentially a couple of halfs. We will just have to see!
