I finished my first ever half marathon this morning! When I signed up for the race in April my goal was 2 hours and 30 minutes. Once June came around, though, we stopped training and the last time I actually ran was July 17th.

We (the boy and I ran together) ended up finishing 13.1 miles in 2 hours and 40 minutes. I'm so proud!

Now we are laying in bed at the hotel resting. We are going to go to Disneyland (it was the Disneyland Half Marathon) for the rest of the day and have dinner reservations at 8 to celebrate our 2 year anniversary :D

@sessaj: Last night we went to Disneyland and ate so many carbs to stock up for the race. And then today my guy's family met us at the finish line and took us out to a yummy breakfast. I plan on eating everything on the menu tonight! Good luck on your marathon, you'll do great!!

@everyone: thank you!!

I signed up for a 10k (my first ever race) that's scheduled for a week after we get back from our honeymoon. Mad props for the half marathon - that's my next goal :)

@redherring: you'll rock your 10K! I swear my 1/2 marathon went a lot faster than the 10K I ran in July though!

@thisismeAXiD: I'm not a runner by nature, I hate every step that I take during races. I seriously don't understand that whole "runner's high" thing, I swear it is a myth ;) But I do it to prove to myself that I CAN do it, I just have to work for it :D
