we did it.

i know i'm an "unaccustomed rookie,"

&& 13.1 miles is not THAT perplexing.

however..

i feel accomplished.

the half marathon

was one of the hardest things i've ever done.

as i was running with my beautiful friend larissa,

i couldn't help but think about life...

and relating it to a marathon.

there were TONS of quite...elevated hills,

&& there were countless times

i would just want to stop.

but my mind kept telling me to keep going.

it's like life..

there are going to be hills. hard hills.

where you just want to give up.

but after that,

it's only down hill from there.

until you get another one..

where it'll be a bit more apparent && simple

to get through this one...

because i've been through it before.

it was hard..

but i did it.

&& it's very gratifying.

how would we have trained without our nike sensors?

these things are freaking amazing..

it records your mileage as well as your time.

we beat our goal

exerting time of 2 hours.

we were the 3rd and

4th girl's

to finish in our division.

i love you lars.

thank you for training with me..

oh && i forgot..

we signed up for the beautiful st. george marathon.

kill me?

i'm not sure how i will even be able to walk.

ps..thanks to all my friends for calling

&& wishing me luck before the race.

i'm so glad to know you guys care, and that i have true friends.

i have the best friends. ever.

♥ xoxo.
