My good friend Janet and I just finished the Vegas Half Marathon today and wow am I sore! It was her first one and I happily agreed to train with her. Let's just say that at mile 10 we were thanking each other for not training for the full marathon. With 3 small boys each, we didn't see how we would have the time. My knees are thanking me! I so appreciate Eric for all of those nights of watching the boys while we went on our long runs. It was a complete butt kicker but such a blast! What a way to start off my 30th birthday week!
Me and Janet on mile 10! We were so happy our husbands showed up to cheer us on. Thanks guys - we needed it! Thank goodness it was an overcast morning!
We finished the 13.1 miles in 2 hours and 15 minutes. Pretty darn good considering we skipped out on our last long run a week before the race.
We rewarded ourselves with a yummy breakfast and mimosas!
Overall it was a great time! I mean, who wouldn't want to run past strip clubs and dirty casinos? All joking aside, I'm kind of sad the training is over. I really enjoyed our girl talk on our long runs. There's always Vegas 2009 right? We'll see....
