The ups and downs along the path to finishing my first half marathon.
Sunday, October 21, 2007
Wow. Tired. Exausted. 35 hours of work between Friday and Sunday night.
Way too much eating out and junk food. I did workout once at the hotel gym, though. I felt good about throwing together a workout outfit in the 10 minutes I had to pack.
I'm a 20-something girl in the upper midwest that finally discovered, after many years of on-again, off-again dedication to the treadmill, running outside. And I love it. I finished my first half marathon and am looking at other races to complete.
