mission accomplished...

i did it! yesterday i ran my first half marathon, and pretty much loved every second of it. I ran the Hobble Creek Half Marathon in Springville. it seriously was such a fun race...its right down hobble creek canyon, and it was beautiful, and nice to run cuz there wasnt much uphill, just a gradual decline through the pretty canyon. I was gettin pretty nervous to run it the week of the race, cuz lets be honest, 13.1 miles is kinda far to run at one time, and i had never ran that far in training...but its been something i've been wanting to do, and i did it. I ran it in 1 hour and 42 minutes...which is far better that i hoped (i'm giving that credit to my sports jelly beans, and the fact that it was a relatively downhill/flat course) I placed 10th in my age division which i was so happy about and now, i'm even happier to be done. i sure do have some sore muscles now though, speaking of those muscles, i think i deserve a massage......babe, where are you?
