I thought I would be ok, but boy was I wrong! My hips and knees were killing me! While I was running I kept asking myself, "why am I doing this again? They should be paying me to run this race!" It was very hard, because
1- We had just gotten back from San Francisco, and
2-I was having some stomach problems...if you know what I mean.
3-I forgot mine and Cason's workout shoes in San Fran, so we didn't work out at all the week before. And the whole eating thing...not the healthiest of foods were inhaled that whole week before.
But hey, at least I/we finished!! (I don't think Cason struggled as much as me)
Good morning!! Bright and early ready to run!
A few girls I run with decided to do it last minute too!
Just about done! I was a ways behind the girls...that's why I'm alone.
Cason and Tony after their race. They did pretty good for just signing up the morning of!!
Done and Done
Our fan club (minus Sarah and Jeff)
Thanks to all who came and supported us! It was much needed!

ReplyDeletethat is so awesome you did that! I would never be able to even finish the race! I don't think your pics are cut off on the right side btw...

ReplyDeleteGood job!I am a major slacker when it comes to my half marathon....I pretty much haven't been training at all! Here's to doing one in October :(
ReplyDeleteWay to go Marie and Cason. If you can run the WBR then of course you can finish a half-marathon. I wish I had been there to run it with you--Ghetto Booty Runners Forever!!!
ReplyDeleteSuper cool, Congrats! More congrats to you Marie--no offense Cas, it's just that 3.1 miles pales in comparison to 13.1 miles!
ReplyDeleteTell Ash I love that she made an appearance in the blogging world! I never see her anymore, I hate it!
Nice Work! I admire you for doing a 1/2 marathon. I started running regularly again a couple of weeks ago (let's just say I'm not able to run as fast or far as I once could) and oh man I admire anyone who goes and runs a race! CONGRATS!!
ReplyDeleteohhhhh man!!! i just got dejavu.. no clue how to spell that. ANYWAY! remember the provo canyon half marathon? haha kill me now please. that was great until about mile 10 or so. then it was all over. i wish i had you as a running partner out here. brandon's way too fast and all my other friends are pregnant. hahaha! love you bum!
ReplyDeleteps this is still katie.
Marie,
ReplyDeleteI love that you married into the Green family! I went to college with Ashley and I love her!! I need to email her and get together since I am just down the road! I can't believe my little "Burr-ette" that I used to babysit is all grown up and married. You look amazing and I am so happy for you!!
Luvs,
Gretchen (Pratley) Johnson
