NYC Half-Marathon!

This past weekend I ran my first half-marathon! I was so proud of what I had accomplished and was so happy to see Andy, Em, Alexis & Corey waiting for me at the end. Anytime I would question myself during the run, as to whether I had enough strength to finish, I would just think of Emmy. I was thinking to myself, if she asked me if she could do it, I would OF COURSE tell her she could and not let her give up on what she had worked so hard on. This was a great lesson for myself and I thought of this the whole way. If I wouldn't let her give up I certainly wasn't letting myself give up. I pushed through and I DID IT!!!

Besides just the run we were able to enjoy some of the city as well. We had to leave early Sat morning so I had time to pick my race materials. This was a plus because we were able to spend time with Jared, Corey & Alexis and also meet Payton & her family for some playtime in Central Park. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time!
