13.1

A group of about 9 of us set a goal in February that we would begin running some races and train ourselves to be able to run in the Atlanta Half Marathon (13.1 miles) on Thanksgiving day. Well we all finished this past Thursday without ever walking and without dying (although i came close). The majority of us couldnt run a mile without stopping when we started this process, so Thursday was a pretty big day for us. I finished in 2 hours 24 min which is a sucky time for real runners but a major accomplishment for me. At the beginning of the race I was sure I wanted to keep training for a marathon, however I still havent forgotten how I felt the last two miles of the race, so the jury is still out on that one. Its kind of like childbirth in that sense
