Somehow we did it!!!

So today was our big half marathon, I was getting really discouraged as the day before I started cramping and bloating. I told Mark I didn't think I was gonna be able to do it. My period was not suppose to come until the week after but last month it came 4 days early and this one came 3 days early. I was so annoyed. Mark was so good about it and understanding but I could tell he was sad we were not gonna do it together. After some serious pondering I decided to suck it up and do the race. My amazing friend Melanie Ellis watched the kids for us. We got there nice and early and meet some friends from church, at 9:00 we headed out. The sun was beautiful and shining bright. Mark was beyond amazing and motivated me when cramps started and held my hand during rough moments. By kilometre 16 we knew this was gonna happen that we were gonna finish. We had to walk at km 18 from tired legs and not the nicest path, then we hit km 20 and picked it up again and ran into the finish line with our amazing friends at the end to run in with us.
