Hobbler Half 2010

7.10.2010

Well, Half Marathon day came and went, and we survivied! Barely though!

We did really well until about mile 7, then, lets just say it went downhill from there. We hit a lot of hills, and were running low on energy. We had bought some GU to maintain some energy, but we took one taste, and we both just about threw up. It was NASTY! And after that it never was the same. (Not to make excuses or anything :) )

But we finished, and that's all that matters right? Angela's mom, Edy, came and cheered us on and followed us in her car for the last few miles, and it gave us great motivation. Thanks Edy!


Let's just say we took forever. Can you tell?
They look so excited. :)
Still waiting
Finally, here we come!
Oh the finish line! Happy day! I didn't want to move, let alone be running.

We survived!
Eric left me this lovely note on me for on the mirror to see around 4 am.
