I Did It

I did it!! I completed my first ever half marathon! I am especially grateful to a supportive husband...

...two loving little kids who were my motivation

...and a trusty pair of running shoes...

I ran 13.1 miles today!

It was a beautiful run with the majority of the scenery the NYC skyline. I got the chills every time I would make a turn and see the new Freedom tower being rebuilt...

It is a beauty, and a reminder, of all those we lost on 9-11. We still have our freedom, and are proving this by rebuilding...

I also ran through Liberty state park and along Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty herself. What a beautiful run!

I am proud to say that I finished in under 2 hours (my goal!) and think it was about 1 hour and 52 minutes.
Exhausting, but glad I accomplished my goal.

I also have to say thank you to my parents because even at 30 years old, they still come to support me and cheer me on!!
