NSV-ran my half marathon!

I ran my first half marathon this past Sunday!  Finished in 2 hours 34 minutes.  No walking, no stopping.  If anyone ever told me a couple years ago I'd be able to do that, I would have busted out laughing!  It felt amazing.  My time was slow...but I DID IT!  

I've been frustrated with my weight loss, but much of it is my fault, so I can't blame my band.  However, I am grateful because if it wasn't for the surgery, I don't think I ever would have had the motivation to push harder and harder like I do now!

Next half in November...then I start training for the full marathon, woot-woot! 

Nice! I can't wait to get to that point to where I can run and not feel like I'm dying or my knees are going to go on strike. :) That's awesome that you've reached that point where you can run half marathons. 

 Great accomplishment, congrats!  My husband and daughter do one or two per year...your time is very good!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!  My goal is to do the same thing next year for the American Cancer Society. 

 Wow, I am so impressed, congratulations!!!!

i have done some half marathons, but in a run/walk capacity.  My poor old knees and ankles won't run as much as my heart wants to!!

best of luck on the marathon training.  I can't wait to read all about that one!!!!!!

Congratulations!  What a great NSV for sure!
