  • I Ran the Half Marathon!!!!!

    Hi guys!

    I have been MIA for a few weeks as I was preparing for a long trip back East, but wanted to let you all know I successfully completed the Virginia Beach Rock N Roll Half Marathon!! It was an AWESOME experience!!! I ran the first 10 miles, then walked/ran the next 2, then ran the last one. Such a cool thing to finish on the beach in front of so many spectators!!!

    REally proud of myself. Still have no wt loss since July, have been faithful to plan. No inches loss that I can measure, although I look a little trimmer.

    Anway, just wanted to say hi and I am back!

                              Yay! Congrats and that is a great time too

                              I am aiming for one in March - so I'd be interested to hear how long it took you to train for, what training you did and how fit you were at the start. Sorry millions of questions there!
