My First Half Marathon with many more to come!

Shellie and I completed our first half Marathon this past Saturday! It was awesome!!! The big question...would I do it again. HECK YEAH!!! Would I do a full marathon...NO! Shellie - YES! I am so glad I was able to do this, and that I was able to run with Shellie, or I should say hang out with Shellie at the starting line. I totally recommend anyone doing this, and it is quite the accomplishment. I can't wait to do it again and beat my time. I came in at 2:47 which is not what I wanted, but it was under three hours. My goal for next time will be 2:30. Thanks Shellie for motivating me and getting me out there. Thanks Jessie for making such cute signs, Thanks Cash for driving me up and supporting me, and Thanks Aunt Debbie, Uncle Ronnie, Lucas, and Legacy for coming to watch/support us as we ran to the finish line!!!

I am never going to run a marathon of any kind because I don't like to run, but I'm happy to be your cheerleader. I don't mind the travelling anyway.
