I was so happy to reach a long-term goal of running in the Columbus Half Marathon. The morning was chilly (35-40 degrees). and the race was packed. It was so cool seeing Children's Hospital Champions at every mile. There were funny signs along the way that said things like, "Running is a mental sport - you're all crazy!" and "Your feet hurt because you're kicking butt!"
I ran it in 2 hours, 1 minute, 29 seconds (pace of 9:17). I had hoped to do it under 2 hours, but I am thrilled nonetheless. I finished in the top 21% for women running the half (1486 out of 6590 women). Special thanks for all of the love and support!
