After I ran the 10K Jason said, "So when are you going to try a 1/2 marathon", to which I replied "NEVER!" Well I guess peer pressure got the best of me (thanks Cathy) and next thing I knew I was signed up for the SD Rock N Roll half. Finding time to train was a little difficult (who has time to run 7-10 miles a few times a week with kids and a hubby who works all the time?) So I felt a little unprepared but still set a goal for myself to run the whole thing. Even if I ran at a snails pace. Decked out in my Bret Michaels gear I was ready to go. The race was so much fun! Super high energy, cheer leaders, but the best were the sign holders. I got a kick out of reading all the signs people were holding up. "Don't hurl!" "Worst parade ever" "Don't stop, don't stop....that's what she said". But I have to say one sign really got to me. A lady was standing solo holding a sign that said "You inspire me....yes you". I honestly choked up a bit. I hope she knows how amazing her small little sign made me feel. Anyways, here are my stats just for my records..and yes I ran the whole 13.1 miles:
Finished in 2 hours and 21 minutes
Overall: 8580 out of 17,600
