Well a few months ago I toyed with the idea of running a half marathon and then I thought to myself who am I kidding I can't do that. So I started running and could barely run a 1/4 of a mile. I kept it up and gradually it became easier and I could go farther. Well my two months came really fast and before I knew it August 23 was here. I was so nervous the night before. I couldn't sleep. I went to bed a 10:00pm thinking I would get a good nights sleep and I watched the clock. It was eleven then twelve then one and I was getting so frustrated. So I ended up getting maybe 2 hours of sleep. I definately felt it running. It was truly the hardest thing I have ever done but also one of the most rewarding. It is such a great feeling to accomplish something that you never in your wildest dreams thought you could ever do. I will never forget the feeling of running through the finish line! It made all my hard work worth it! So I finished with a time of 2:34 and I wasn't last! Candace and Willie ran it also. They did great and finished about 45 min. before me! We had a great time and best of all we did it!!!
