New personal best in my half marathon. My goal was 2 1/2 and I came in at 2:28:10. I can not believe it. It was such an amazing feeling crossing the finish line and the emotions that go through you. You just need to believe in yourself and when you believe in yourself than anything is possible.

and look at you. You are doing it. Just remember believe in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself than you can not expect other people to people to believe in you. One day we will do a race together. I would love to have see a race done with all of us that had surgery.
