| For the past couple months I've been training with these two lovely ladies to run a half marathon. Today we accomplished our goal! It felt awesome. |
I'd told Monty I wanted to run a half marathon a few months back, and then while at the park one day, Trinity(the one in the middle) asked if I wanted to train with her to do a half marathon. I agreed. She also asked Tammy, who admits she was clueless as to how far a half marathon was, and she said yes(we laugh about that now). We got up early before getting our kids off to school to run three time a week. The funniest day was a day we were all hoping it would be raining so we wouldn't have to run, but it wasn't. Then 2 miles into our run it started raining cats and dogs. There was no shelter of any sort, so we were soaked by the end and at that point decided we could consider ourselves hard core runners! I struggled with sore ankles due to medication complication and wondered if I would even be able to do it a few times during the couple months of training, but when all was said and done we crossed the finish line today with a time of about 2hours20minutes. Not bad for our first run(our goal was under 2 and a half hours). It was fun to have a goal and two fun friend to share it with. Thanks Ladies for the fun, but I'm going to enjoy the extra hour sleep this week as we take a few days to recover!
