So........despite the people who didn't think I'd pull it off, I did. I completed the 1/2 marathon today -- my first 1/2 marathon, and just squeaked it under the wire before my 40th birthday.
The weather was great, the scenery was spectacular, and the event itself was inspiring! Seeing all the people out was quite something. Having the crowds cheer you on as you go also was a real boost.
The photo with this post was at the finish line. The ladies ahead were part to the Leukemia/Lymphoma team, and talk about being inspiring! Most of them were running for someone, and I think this was very meaningful.
I'm inspired to continue, and complete a 1/2 marathon in less time...we'll see.
SO....
....what's next for 'Running on Faith" blog site. Well, we start a big renovation tomorrow, so I think I'll continue blogging on this as a record. But who knows, maybe there will be more running stuff at some point!
Thanks all for the support you've given me.
