A group of friends and I decided to train for the Fit One Half Marathon. I think the training runs were my very favorite. I love running on the greenbelt. It's so beautiful and relaxing.
This part is my very favorite or I should say when I retire and my kids are gone I wan to retire to this spot!
Everyone has their own dock out to the pond and in the early morning there is a little fog over the water and it just looks like something straight out of the fairytale books!
But for now my yard/house will do. One morning we ended at my house and this was the beautiful scenery. I'll take it!
Morning of the race came and I was extra spoiled by a friend that made me a little gift basket. I was super excited to try these energy Jelly Bellys!
Love these ladies! We had a great time training together. Great conversation and they pushed me! I needed to be pushed!
This is only the second half marathon that I have run but it was SOOOO much harder! I absolutely disliked the course.....it was rough for me!
My stomach really started to bug me around mile 6 and it was hard goings from there. Seeing this train depot hill was intimidating so close to the end of the race!
But I did it! I made it and was happy to get home to recover and relax. Only 1....or maybe 2? more to go and I'll hang up my half marathon medals for life!
