Nike WHM DC

I’m so thankful and glad I was able to experience this half marathon in DC. It was such an amazing experience to run through the nation’s capital and absorb all the beautiful surroundings that DC has to offer. The training and the build up until the day off was so much fun and memorable. I love everything NIKE has offered especially the expotique and the name wall. It made the event more exciting! Everyone was so supportive, especially for the bands/​drummers that played and those that made signs to keep everyone motivated! It definitely made a difference to helped keep you pumped the whole way through. The run definitely was not bad at all, although it did have a few elevations, but was still manageable.
The one thing that bothered me were people stopping in front me to walk. I kept having to dodge them making it a bit harder to run. I went over my paced time that I’m used to, but given the many people that were there, I guess it is expected. I look forward to signing up again for next year. :) Overall, I would give this event 5 stars.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from the Nike Women’s Half Marathon. It was my first half marathon and my first time in DC. I’ve done some other races, but I think this had to have been the best one that I’ve done. Nike really goes all out and I can say, I had fun at a half marathon! And men can do the run too! I think I might try DC again next year :)
