Default Completed first 1/2 Marathon

Well --- I did it! It wasn't pretty, I wasn't graceful, but I got it done!!!!

I stayed in the game and didn't get swept. I wasn't the last person to finish...but I finished at the back of the pack and you know what...that was totally fine with me!!! I did it...i did my first 1/2 marathon -- crazy proud of myself.

Will write more later this week...on web for the first time for a few days, and wanted to quick pop in and let my girls know I go the job done.

Thanks for all the support through my training

Hi Deb!!!!! Fancy meeting you here

Congrats on finishing the Princess. I am going next year. Can't wait.

Are you considering marathon weekend? I am going again, just deciding on which race I want to do.
