half marathon……..check!!
Well, I completed one of my personal goals of running a half marathon!! Yahoooo! I injured my knee/tendons/whatever you want to call it a week before the race! Let’s just say—I was freaking out!! Along with some prayers, rest, massages, ice and a couple chiropractor visits I got through the race without too much pain!! Pain is overrated when you’re running a half marathon for the first time ever along with the 3 best running buddies in the entire world, right???!!! We finished in 2:04 with enough energy to hug our kids and husbands at the finish line!! I thank so many people for all the support (esp. Mr. Joel who never once complained when I told him I was going out for a run for the fifth day in a row) but, most especially, for the members of the “FAB 4″!!! Thank you Amy, Jodi and Angie for the words of encouragement and inspiration to complete this personal goal of mine!! I’ll never forget this one!!
ps: check out the shirts!! They were the best idea for a run like this and sooooo many runners and spectators commented on them!! Go FAB 4!!
Awesome! That is quite the accomplishment! I had a good laugh at your face in the second pic. I enjoy the shirts too!
