I did it! I had an amazing time at the race today and proudly tackled the crazy mountains hills that were all over the course. It was a great challenge though and I will definitely be back next year.
My mental list came in handy when the going got tough, especially #12. Yes, I enjoyed every single lick of the chocolate ice cream that I got after the race!
Thanks again for all your well wishes, I hope your weekend has been an active one!

Wow, congratulations WorkoutMommy! You inspire me, although right now I’m at the 5K-is-my-challenge stage, I really do hope I will progress to a half marathon in my running future.

Congratulations! Hills are a killer- so it is even more awesome of an accomplishment.
