Feeling Just a Little Like Forrest

I am proud to say that after this weekend I am now a half marathon champion! My sister and I started training last year, (I only trained for two months...probably explains all my pain two days later!) and we reached our goal of running 13.1 miles. I never thought I would be able to run such a long distance and for such a long amount of time. But against all odds, we reached the finish line with the help of every muscle in our bodies. It was really a fun weekend with my sister and her husband who came down from Las Vegas to hang out with me and Kyle. It was a great day and a great feeling to able to accomplish something I never thought I would. I now have a new appreciation for cars altogether and for athletes around the world! Blue Betty, I love you! Go RUNNERS!!

Pumped and ready before the run...


Ready to collapse after the finish line...





Thanks Steph for convincing me to do this crazy thing and for always having crazy, fun ideas!! Thanks Kyle for pushing me to train, even during Thanksgiving and Christmas!
