Perfect morning to run 13.1 miles. Brooke even woke up early to come out and cheer me on.
Finished in 1:24:43 and felt pretty strong. The half is definitely my favorite distance and the 7 a.m. start time is definitely my favorite start time.
I’ve got a container of chocolate covered cinnamon bears and a new episode of The Mindy Project to attend to while Brooke is napping:) Have an amazing rest of your Saturday and I will see you soon!

You are amazing! Congrats on a great race! I loved everything about this morning, but I was disappointed that I never spotted you. I guess I have to get A LOT faster to catch you at the finish line. ;)

Congrats on an awesome race! I ran it, too; it was my first half ever! I finished in 1:35:30, which I was pretty happy about.
That was so funny how they dragged out the awards ceremony. They called your name for second in your age group, and then you weren’t there. I guess it doesn’t mean anything to an accomplished runner like you!
My friend who didn’t train at all got 1:45. Pure craziness.
The Hungry Runner Girl

Great job! You look great. It was a fantastic race. I enjoyed it so much. The weather was perfect. The race organization was top notch. I loved every minute of it. And the medals were so cool.. And so heavy! It gave me a good neck workout hauling it around.. Lol :-)

Holy Cow! Congratulations on a fabulous race! I agree 100% a half marathon at 7am (preferably 40 degree temperatures) is perfect!

I need to try chocolate covered cinnamon bears.. I have never seen them or hear anyone else talk about them.. the idea is so confusing to me I don’t get what they would taste like

Mary @ Run Walk Lift
Great Race! I can’t wait until I can race again. I might actually do the full 12 week half training this time. I still have some healing to do, but I’m close.
