On January 29, 2012, I completed my first half marathon with my future hubby-poo. I completed the half marathon in 2 hours and 22 minutes which is 8 minutes faster than my goal! I'm proud to say that I only stopped once to use the restroom (BTW the toilets were disgusting!).
I created a ballin' (yes ballin') playlist on Spotify for the half marathon. I had songs from Deadmau5 to Paul Simon to Mad Caddies. It's a weird mix but it kept me dancing while I ran. Here is a link to my Spotify Half Marathon playlist if you're interested: Half Marathon.

It is so motivating to have the 6000 runners all around you moving towards the same goal. I also loved seeing the people on the side cheering us on! My favorite sign was "Worst Parade Ever". There was also a sign that said "You're not slow... You're just enjoying the course."
Isn't she the cutest? I don't think she would have made it 13.1 miles.
Now I have to get back into the swing of things. I have 6 more weeks to lose about 16 pounds. Is that possible? I'm not sure but I'll try to reach it!
I liked your playlist. I have been listening to it all day. You should make some more so I can steal them and use them on long runs.
ReplyDeleteI think you can lose 16 pounds in 6 weeks. Just keep working at it!!
