Have you ever done something just to be able to say you did it? Well, about 3 months ago, I told Kevin one night that I was going to run a half marathon just to say I did it. And guess what…..I actually did it!!! I have ran more in the last 12 weeks than I probably have in my whole life combined and it really wasn’t so bad. It is such an awesome feeling to know that I can run 13.1 miles without stopping. It took a lot of determination, a little (probably a lot) of whining and a great friend to run with, but this past Sunday I ran in the Wichita Half Marathon.
Post race with our medals for finishing!

Way to go girl! You should be SO proud of yourself!
That is so awesome! I've made a goal to do a half after this last baby. I have never been a runner and I really DO NOT like it, so I may need to call on you for support!
Congratulations! You should be very proud!
Awesome! I could never do it. I know you worked so hard for it, and you did motivate me to do a smidgen of running w/ you. =) Now we must go celebrate your half and Becky's bday! =)
Hey Lins. I'm just now reading this. How cool that you blogged our run. You definitely got me through it as well. Especially after I got that horrible side stitch about mile 11. Thx so much for running with me. I really believe it's not so much about the finish line but the fun you have along the way. Training and running with you has been a blast. Now for that next race!! And I agree with Sally...we need to plan our GNO celebration!
