Well it's done......I ran my first 1/2 marathon and it was such a great experience. When we signed up for the race, I hoped to finish around 2:15 and my official time was 2:06. {Wahoo!} I really committed to the training schedule and feel like it paid off in the end. Along with training, it was also super helpful that the race was in a beautiful location. I'd never visited Vancouver, BC and it did not disappoint. Jody and I could not get over how nice and helpful everyone was......not to mention the place was SO clean.
We also took advantage of the kindness of Jody's folks and turned our weekend of running into an early anniversary vacation. It's hard to believe, but we haven't spent any time away since Harrison joined our family a year ago. I missed the little dude like crazy, but it was so nice to be able to focus on my husband and spend time with good friends.
I have to say that the only bad thing about being in Canada was the international roaming. It cost a small fortune to use our phones, so we were forced to organize meet-up locations and use paper maps {so old school}. I also didn't bring my camera, thinking I could just use my phone, so this is the only picture Jody took. Thankfully, one of the other ladies brought hers and will be sharing them shortly.
