13.1 MILES BABY! WOOT!

On June 2, 2012, I accomplished a goal that I set for myself. That goal was to run a half-marathon!

Half-marathon recap:

Well...it was hilly, exhilarating, tiring, etc. etc, but I gave it my all and it felt amazing! I thought that I would finish around 2:30 but I finished around 2:50. The course was super hilly, I guess they don't call it Hospital Hill for nothing! :) The whole experience was amazing and very spiritual. This whole experience (training and racing) has reminded me that we can do ANYTHING that we aspire to do and the Lord is there to help us and strengthen us. Our spirits are in control of our body and I've proven that over the last 12 weeks.

I'll be running in another half-marathon in October with a friend. It's going to be GREAT! The course is similar to the Hospital Hill half, so I'll train more on hills. I am excited for another race!
