My New Year's Resolution was to do a 10-week training program for a 1/2 marathon. I could never really picture myself running a 1/2 marathon or actually WANTING to run one. But I thought if I did the training I could lose some baby fat:) The training program was off marathonrookie.com. What caught my eye were the long runs each saturday that gradually built up. I stared at the number "10 miles." I thought that when I completed those runs I would definately blog about it & write "boo-yah" on my blog post & how I completed 10 miles. Well, two of those days came & left, and honestly there was nothing to boo-yah about. Because for me, I am not a long distance runner, anything after 8 miles I am not really too happy about! So I was pretty nervous about this race, but I have to tell you that I REALLY enjoyed the experience! (and knowing I completed my goal & do not have to do long runs again!:)) I LOVED running with 3,000 other people, I loved the gatorade & water tables, I loved the weather, I loved running it with my sister-in-law Jenny, my friend Aundria, & I loved that my boys & Ted were my biggest fans!!!
