My first half marathon is finally behind me. I couldn't have - scratch that - wouldn't have finished without Jason being by my side. I thought that I was totally prepared and I learned that around mile 6 that I was NOT. I was not properly hydrated - not conditioned for the terrain and not very well rested due to traveling...with kids! :)
It was a great experience and I'd do it all again. I think that the best part was on mile 3 when we saw our support - Jason and I married well. Our spouses and children were there cheering us on - and Noah yelling "GO MOMMY GO!" brought me to tears! It was totally awesome.
I have respect for the 1/2 marathon distance and admiration for those crazy folks who run hills. I on the other hand am going to stick to my flat hot & muggy Florida terrain for now. I hear the Space Coast 1/2 marathon is still open and going on in November...there's time to work on my training, right? :)
