I did it!

Last Sunday was the day - my much anticipated, slightly dreaded half marathon. I woke up at 6 am not the least bit excited that I was about to run for 2 hours straight. I was excited for it to be over. Training has been a bit harsh on my body, and I have been walking with a constant limp for the last few weeks - not cute.

However, the race kicked butt! I finished in 1:58:50! A whole minute and 9 seconds under my goal of "under 2 hours." The first half I did I finished in 2:14, so shaving off a whole 15 minutes was really great for me.

It was the first half for the girls I ran with and I am so proud of them! Here's to our next adventure ladies.

just after we finished, we're a hot sweaty mess
