I did it! I completed my first ½ marathon! The excitement and nervousness I felt prior to race day was pretty crazy. I was anxious, due to all the physical complications I had been experiencing throughout the month of September and not to mention just how intense my 12 mile run was, the week prior. BUT, I did it and it was beyond amazing. All glory goes to God for sustaining me with the energy I needed throughout the run.
The weather was perfect and the scenery was magical. It truly allowed me to appreciate God's creations so much more.

My next goal is to run the Seattle Rock & Roll ½ Marathon in June, so I'll be training for that sometime next year. In the mean time I intend to run a race at least once a month. Throughout the last couple of months, I have developed such joy and love for running that I want to continue this road I've started.
