I'm not quite sure how or why I decided to start training for a half marathon.... but I did. My goal was just to finish. I wanted to try to finish under 2:15. I started training a few months before the race and talked Heather, Laura, Mom and my friend Stacy into joining me (Only Laura was brave enough to take on the half marathon - everyone else did the 10k)
Race day came and it was a beautiful day in the mountains! The first 6 miles were great - it was all downhill. At mile 8 it began to get more difficult and more rolling hills came into play.
Amazingly enough, I made it! Time: 2:14:55 Goal by 5 seconds! I even beat a few (not Laura, she beat me by 2 minutes). Placed 70 in overall female out of 149.
