Today was the day my dear friend Erica and I have been waiting for since about May when we decided to hit the road running and accomplish something both of us have wanted to accomplish for some time. So we worked hard, and we trained, and we arrived at Lafayette early this morning for our first every Mini Marathon.

I was very thankful that my knee's didn't bother me to much. A couple times, but they were both times I was able to overcome the discomfort. I was extremely dizzy afterwards, but with some fluids in me and a curb to sit on, I soon overcame that as well. I was happy with my time which my goal was to run it in 2 hours and 20 minutes. I crossed the finish line in 2 hours and 7 minutes. So very thankful! Thanks Erica for being my training partner! You are a mighty great friend!!

Oh ha!! Your right. It was an hour and 8 minutes I finished my 10k. Well, anywhoo...you still did a fabulous job for having a baby 6 months ago. No one would ever know you had a 6 month old.
