1/2 Marathon

I did it. I finally did a 1/2 marathon. Now we didn't do an organized race, but the 13.1 miles were all the same. I couldn't find a race that fit my schedule so Marie, Katrina, and I just started running and didn't stop till we had run 13.1 miles. As an added bonus, do you know what you can do with $50 you don't spend on an entrance fee?
12.5 Smoothie King smoothies
5 yards of fabric
2 gallons of paint
5.07 bowls of pumpkin curry
5 flats of pretty flowers
3.33 days of indoor climbing
2.08 New 4GB memory cards

So what did we spend our money on? Pedicures, half a dozen doughnuts, and coconut water. Money well spent.

  1. I am so proud of you. Not only because you ran a half marathon, but also because you blogged again. Thanks. I've missed you.

    P.S. Half marathons are the best when done with friends. Tell Marie nice job too! Does Marie blog?
