Half Marathon

Last weekend both Tim and I (along with 2 of my brothers and one of my sisters) completed a half marathon. We had been training for the last 2 1/2 months. We all did better than we expected. One brother finished in about an hour and a half (that's really fast for those of you who don't know running). Tim finished less than 15 minutes later running much faster than his training (afterall, he trained with two rookies - one of them being me). Had he trained at his regular pace he could have been up there with my younger brother. Then my younger sister and older brother both beat me; yes my little sister finished before me but that's no different than how it was in high school track and cross country. I ran faster than I thought and finished in 2 hours 3 minutes. It was a great race, all downhill along a trail that follows the river down the canyon. Almost immediately after I knew I was in trouble; I could barely walk. I stayed that way for 2 days, walking like an old grandma but now I'm back to normal. Thanks little sis for letting us all stay at your place and thanks to my sister and my brothers for making it a fun race. I'd have pictures but Baby T. got a hold of the camera and it hasn't been the same since.
