Half-Marathon

This morning I ran my first half-marathon with a friend of mine from my bible study.  Ever since Shane started running marathons I have always wanted to run a half-marathon.  Finally, I put my words into actions, and made it happen today!  My friend Chase and I have been running together, and stuck together through the whole race.  I can't say it didn't hurt, and I definitely had my doubts, but my entire family came out to support, encourage and cheer me on.  We finished 13.1 miles in 2 hours and 39 minutes, which I was pleasantly happy with!

Chase and I before the race about 6:30am, cold but ready to run!

After the race, excited we finished, but starving!
