Preparation is key. With anything in life. I was not prepared for the hills. Or the heat. But it was still so much fun and I can’t wait to run in my next one. I ran the whole thing (except for the massive hill up the reservoir) UGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
Here’s some pictures:
I finished with a humble time of 41:04. But I’m still alive!
Thanks for visiting!

Jennifer @ Getting Down With Jesus says
Oh girl.
I am so proud of you. So, so proud.
A half-marathon is in your near future. I’m serious.
In January, I couldn’t have run to my mailbox. But in May I ran a half-marathon, and I’m running another in September.
If you want the training plan, let me know via email.
You ROCK!
