Before the race...after we waited in really LONG lines at the Johnny on the Spot.
And then we ran, and ran, and ran...and when we felt like we couldn't run anymore....we whined, and then we ran some more:)
With our finisher's medals and goody bags...SO excited that we made it! We finished 13.1 miles in 2:29...about a 11:45 minute mile. The competitive soul in me was pissed we didn't run it faster...but that's what happens when there are 25,000 other people on the street with you!
Thanks to all of you who cheered us on and encouraged us along the way...and especially to our coach..Erin!! She helped us so much and made the whole day SO much more fun.
We've come a long way, girl:)
Ok...well here's to a happy and healthy race...and to our next race event!
I'm thinking the Chicago marathon sounds nice...
SO PROUD!! You guys look great, and that's SUCH A LONG RUN! Congratulations again... I hope you're not super sore.
