1/2 Marathon Complete!!!!!

Today was the day and it was great!  The weather was super and perfect for a run.  My friend Sheri, yes the same one that ran the Chicago marathon last week, ran the whole way with me.  It was good to have someone to encourage me along the way.  She did such a great job with her encouragement and just being there with me that I improved my time over last year by five minutes, YEAH!  I did end up walking a couple of times and did not accomplish my "no walking race", but I did finish with the 1st place finisher of the marathon.  That works really well if you want a lot of cheering at the end.  I just pretended they were all cheering for me.

Yeah girls, your Mom ROCKS! She doesn't give herself enough credit, but she ROCKS! I didn't like finishing with the Marathon Winner. They just shoved me aside like yesterday's news. I may need to talk this through....

Great job! What a sense of satisfaction you must be feeling right now. Drink lots of water, eat what your body needs and get some rest.

Great job! Always good to take minutes off your time. I was looking for you. Lots of runners today. The weather was great. I always say about 4 miles in why am I doing this. Then when it's over I know why I do it. Such a great feeling. Sheri way to go. Running a marathon then a week later running a half. I can't even think about running right now.
