13.1.....bring it on!!!!

It came(really early), we saw it, we kicked its.....bum!!! The half marathon was great!!! It was a beautiful day, I was running it with my sisters(minus 1) and my cuz Maria, could not have been better! Ok well...maybe a little. I wanted to do it 2 hours or less, but did it in 2 hours 3 minutes instead! Still not too bad. Took 7 minutes off my last half, so I was happy about that! Here I am at mile 10(Maria is next to me) starting to feel it a little(good thing I had my goo)! Just saw Bek and my Hubby and kids, so that helped pump me back up!! Really does help to have that support!! Thanks guys!! Only 3.1 more to go.....

Grandpa and E waiting for Stef to cross the finish line. Love this pic!!
Bek, Kirk and the kids missed me crossing the finish line, not by much though! My kids were excited for me! Love the hugs!!
Dad and Denise had flowers for each of us runners at the finish line!! That was so nice and thoughtful!!!
My game face!! Not sure what Im doing with my mouth.....
All us runners....
I think we look pretty good for just running 13.1 miles!!!

Love my sisters!!!
Pretty girl with pretty flowers...or flower!!
Just my stud son chilllin!! Not sure whats going on with the hat....
We are family!! Had to get one all together!!! Bek was so great!!! She was there at Liberty waiting for all of us and ran with us each for a bit!! Thats such a big help!! Dad, Denise and Garrick and some cousins and friends were there at the finish line! We had great support and it meant so much!! Thanks again everyone!! I love you!!! Until next year!! Maybe some inbetween......
