Being able to do this half marathon and finish it was a huge thing for me. Finishing was more then just walking 13.1 miles. Its was breaking down a big wall in my life. I have been someone who gives up easily. when things get rough i stop and walk away. So in the past I wouldn't of finished or even started a half marathon. I truly showed myself that I am a lot stronger then I give myself credit for.
I am now want to do more walking. I think I will do a 10k this summer and a half marathon in September. I had my amazing husband cheer me on the whole way and take care of me after when I had a aching feet and legs. I couldn't of done it without my hubby.
I walked in a group of ladies in my family. Are team name was yamomagirls. It was so fun when people would yell from the sidelines " Go yamomagirls!" I walked with two aunts, my grandma a cousin and my mom. It was very fun doing this with them. I'm so proud of my mom for doing the half marathon. Her hip started hurting her around mile 4 or 5. But she kept going.
I just love it when you can prove yourself you can do something.
life is goood
