Arizona Distance Classic

The kids & I before the race



Feeling tired going uphill



Getting some encouragement from Rachel




My race number & medal

I ran a half marathon this morning. When I started running again last summer, I had a goal to be able to run a half marathon by the end of a year. It was a very hilly course and the last few miles were tough, but I finished in about 2 1/2 hours, which is the time I expected to run it in. Next year, my goal is to shave 15 minutes of my time. (Yes, I'm going to do it again)
