  • I conquered The Half!!!

    I did it. I did it. I ran the Dallas White Rock Lake Half Marathon. The official results have not been posted yet, but my Chrono. clocked me at (drumroll please)---2:22:23. First goal--No walking. Done. Second goal--Under 2:30. Done. Much more hills than I expected, and they tore me up, but I kept postive, grinned like a fool and plugged along. More than 4,000 racers. It was amazing I feel so happy. You can do anything you put your mind to. If I can you can. Whoohooo!!!! Thank you so much for all of your support guys!!!

        Ok results are in chip time is 2:22:14. I was 173 out of 258 in my age group. I was 2235 out of 3131 runners ( I guess the other runners were 5kers). Not bad. Something to work on, but not too shabby for a fat gal who has only been running for 6 months.

          that is great now besure you hydrate for the rest of today and don't worry if the scales are up tommorow cause your muscles are sure to think if you had to runn that long some great big monster was after you and it might comeback.

          Again congrats

                        You guys are so sweet. I would be hard pressed to do it without your advice and support. The next race is Feb 11. Until then I will practice my cheers for Betty and her half in Jan. at Disney.

                              The Texas Half--It is around White Rock lake as well. I just heard about the Austin Marathon today and would love to do that sometime.
