    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!!!!

          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.

                    I used to (try to) ride my bike around that 9 to 11-mile lake back in the '90's. That is such a beautiful lake - and goodness, DID YOU DO A GREAT JOB!!!!! I admire anyone who can run that many miles, so well done!

                        Wow, not even a day or two of "I'm NEVER RUNNING AGAIN!" before making that decision. You must've paced yourself well!

                              You are a Winner and a Loser at the same time!!
                              Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                              Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
