Half Marathon

Some pics from the Houston Half Marathon! I did it! In under 3 hrs! My time was 2:35:56, and that included some walking during mile 10-11 when I thought my heart was going to explode!!!

picking up my packet!!


gettin' ready


running, running, running (friends joining me)


finish line, friends, medal


hubs got me stickers and a rose and took me out for my fav dinner


Such a great day! 
I felt so loved and supported by friends and family! 
Plus I raised $600 for my charity, Living Water International!

I did learn some things though: 
1) Do NOT take ibuprofen mid-race or your heart rate will drop andyou'll think you're having a heart attack;
2) Do NOT have a 2-hr massage the day after the race unless you wanna have mad toxins circulating, making you feel like poo;
3) DO drink lots of green juice and water the week after and get plenty of sleep, ah!
