BOO-YAH

Well I did it and not being cocky but I totally rocked it too. I don't think I can put into words the feelings I felt as I crossed the finish line with not only a time of 1:59:12 (my goal was to do it in under 2 hours and 15 minutes), but I also got 2nd place in the womens open, that is any girl under the age of 35 and if you don't believe me which I don't even think I believe it yet I totally have a metal to prove it. Besides getting married, and having a baby this definitely goes down in history books as the most amazing thing I have ever done. I want to take a quick moment and do a shout out to all those that helped motivate me and get to this day.

#1. my hubby for all the support and help
#2 Macie, I do this for you little girl to be a good example and hope you have the same desires as me
#3 My two amazing friends Royall and Kristi who have trained and felt the pain and joy from running a half marathon
#4 my mother you are amazing for motivating yourself to get healthy at the age of 60 and our such a good example to all of our family.
#5 my father and brother in law (ryan hall) these two men are the most athletic people I know and if I can impress them with doing a half marathon then I am one happy girl
and #6 anybody else that has ever run one of these, it is a lot of work and effort and discipline but so worth it when you cross the finish line.
