I promised I'd update you after the race so here I am. The morning after, I am very sore but feel pretty good overall. The race was awesome. My sister (an avid 1/2 and full marathon runner) ran with me and kept me motivated. We ran the whole way and finished with a time of 2:18:05. My goal was 2:30
It feels so great to have accomplished this and to have performed better than I expected. If any of you are interested in running, I highly encourage you to sign up for some local races. They are so much fun, tons of them are themed and people dress up in costumes and there is a wide variety of level of runners doing them. So fun, the next race I'm doing is on Halloween. So good luck girls, stay motivated!
