I can't believe that I actually ran a half marathon! Seriously! If you would have asked me about doing this five years ago, I would have laughed in your face....and then lit up another cigarette. Now, five years after I quit, I can't get enough of running and wouldn't think about lighting up! I love running and the more I do, the better I feel.

But this sticker is what I have been wanting for about a year now! And the time has finally come! It is on my jeep! Right above my running sticker! There is one more sticker I want to get about running and then I should be good. Wish I could find a cover for my tire. That would be awesome! :)

What a GREAT day!

 

Looking forward to next year!

So close!

6 days and counting! That's it! I don't believe that I have trained enough for my goal but I know that I have trained enough to finish. I ran 11 miles last Sunday and 8 miles yesterday with my first four miles (alone) was averaged at 8:57 for time and the last four (with a friend) was averaged at 10:07 and felt great after it....could have ran more but I didn't want to overdo it with my race being only 7 days away. 

I'M READY!

13 Days

.....and counting!

I ran 11 miles yesterday and actually felt great and thought "I could do more but why push it". I just finished 7 miles two days prior. My last mile was paced at 8:54 min but it took me 1:55:22 to finish the 11 total. I want to get under 2 hours. I HAVE TO DO THIS!

I WILL DO THIS!

Period.
