“Amy Seagroves (HF18410, DA3652, MM15648) – I did it!! I completed 52 half marathons in 365 days to make Sun Level with Half #140 Shoreline Half near Rochester, NY. I am very happy this ended up being the race that brought me to the Sun as it is a special race to me and also the race that started my half marathon obsession.
I was lucky to run this race in summer 2020 since I signed up before the pandemic and it was a trial run to see if they could safely hold races by the race company only for those who signed up early. It was my 7th half marathon back when I was a newbie on Neptune. It was my first road half marathon after the pandemic and I loved it so much I decided to sign up for as many half marathons as possible and hope at least some of them would happen. During Fall of 2020 about half the races I signed up for happened and I did about it 1 to 2 half’s per month. I did the same in winter and spring and by spring almost none got canceled and I ended up running a half almost every weekend I had off and did my first double which made me realize how much I could do. Since I first did the Shoreline half 4 years ago I have now completed 133 more half marathons! Not sure this would have happened if I didn’t run this race in 2020 so it was the perfect race to get to the Sun with
Also it is a really nice, fast course and I finished my first sub 3 hour half this year!”
