I had a great time and I'm really glad that I did it!
We finished the marathon in 4 hours and 4 minutes! We each averaged an hour. I planned on running a 12 minute mile and I actually ran it in 10!
The course is super pretty. I must admit though, I didn't look at the scenery too much...I was just focusing on the next point I could stop at! It is a good feeling to say that it's done and that I did better than I planned.
I will be looking for other races to run this summer because that was really good for me to be focused on a race..I'm just not that motivated on my own. :)
I'm a little sore, but not too bad...today. It was all worth it. Thanks for caring.:)
Zach's mom took these pics of us when she saw us on the course. She was so good to bring Ben and Solomon to see me. Zach's leg actually went right past their house, so that made it nice for everyone. They just drove around the block after they saw Zach and saw me. It worked out well. Thanks Becky for watching the kids! We really appreciated it!
That's Ben's cousin Luke in the highchair and Ben running to Zach.
One mile to go...that was the only time he stopped. Amazing man!
This is at the top of Monte Cristo road...pretty huh? I would recommend this run to anyone.

Congratulations! I seriously couldn't do that. I am amazed!
Good work! I am so proud. Let me know when the next one is, maybe I'll do it for you.
I meant with you.
That's awesome you guys did that--great job! And too bad we couldn't all be there to cheer you on (since we knew you guys and Tammie!) I bet it's a really cool feeling to know you accomplished it.
yay! Becca, you rock. That looks like a beautiful place. I am excited to see where you take this new hobby of yours. to tell you the truth, i have been wanting to take up racin for a while, I just haven't made that leap yet. you are inspiring.
holy smokes girl! you rock!
You guys are amazing!! So proud of you.
You guys are amazing! What a fun thing to be involved in together. I am starting to train to run races again and it is so time consuming. I can't imagine if Woody was trying to do the same thing too. We need to get together again soon!
