To many 2.02.28 means nothing... to me it was a VICTORY!! 4 months ago... and only 8 months after having Ms. Emmy... I began to train for my second half marathon. At first... it was hard for me to find the time... find the energy... find the motivation. But I was determined... determined to do something for "myself". So... I began to make the time (5am runs)... I found the energy (caffeine and to bed earlier)... and with NO time... my motivation was stronger than ever!!
Don't ever say that you simply can't... because the truth is you CAN... you just have to make it happen.
I must add too... a dear friend... and neighbor was a huge part of my motivation. Rachel got up with me and would train with me.... she even would run half of my long runs on the weekend. Everyone needs someone who roots them on in a positive way!
Mile 6 ...
Dear friend Kevin came to run it from IL... finished 1.51 Whooohoooo!!! Great job!
Still smiling and thanking the Lord for providing the energy!!! I had way too much left! :-)
Here's the crew: Carolyn (5k finisher), Kevin and myself.
Now... for the winter... just doing some 5k and a 10k... and hope to prepare for the next half in April. :0)
