WE FINISHED A HALF-MARATHON!!!
And what a beautiful day it was to run. Although at times, we may have felt as if we were going to die, we did it. Nicole and I ended up running the last 6ish miles together and speaking encouragement to ourselves almost the entire time. There were a few swear words that almost leaked out due to our body's condition and lack of strength. But we finished.
Nicole and I finished in 2 hours and 16 minutes... not the best time, but we weren't going for that. We just wanted to finish. The other 3 finished ahead of us and did WONDERFUL!!
Matt and Chris were there cheering us on and so encouraging. Afterwards, we all went out to Carlos O'Kelly's to celebrate our wonderful victory.
Aimee and I will most likely never be running a half-marathon again, but the other three weren't quite as negative towards the idea. So... we'll see if there are any running events in the future at which cheerleaders will be needed. :)

I am SO proud of you Amy!! I will do a walking race with you sometime :D Love you girl!!
YAY! Good job Amy! That is about the time I did it in too (probably the slowest time you can get without actually walking) What a great accomplishment!
