We did it!

This weekend was the Nashville Half Marathon - and I did it! I was really nervous before the race as I was unsure whether my injured quad was completely healed or not - but it held up the entire 13.1 miles! I finished in 2 hours and 21 minutes. My sis-in-law, Al, and I finished together holding hands! I really hope the picture of the finish comes out - but even if it doesn't, I'll always remember the race and the fact that we finished together! I am very proud of my accomplishment and am anxious to start training for another race...though I'm thinking about training for a triathlon instead!

Here are some pics from our wonderful weekend!

And the after picture - 13.1! (note, this is quite a few hours after...the pic from right after we finished was not so pretty...we needed some sleep and some food and some showers!)


And one of me and the best husband in the world! He was there cheering us girls on and when I saw him at mile 10 I started to tear up - he was the inspiration I needed to keep running until the finish!
