But really, I'm done now

Today, I finished a half marathon in 3:08:51. We walked the thing, so I'm actually quite impressed with that time. To add to the joy, today set a heat record for this event. Good times, good times. It was hot friends, very stinking hot. An ice bath, a shower, some food, and AdvoCare products taken, I can say with authority, and, I've said it once before, but this time I am SERIOUS: I AM DONE WITH THESE!!!!

Big props go out to my buddies who completed the event today, their first half marathon ever, and some are stating it will not be their last. Good luck ladies, good luck. To the family and friends of the man who collapsed and died upon completing the half marathon, my prayers and thoughts are with you, and I'm glad God waited until after the finish line...symbolic really. Seriously, I cannot imagine what this family will be going through after today. I don't know their names, don't know the man's name, but please pray for them.

Time to go ice the ankle, and various other parts of my body...again. Night night.

I was out cheering on a friend doing her first at the OKC Memorial Marathon today. Great job to all who participate in such activities. I think I'll be doing some in my future :)

Congrats! I actually did not learn from my marathon experience and want to try it again. :) Maybe this time I will train properly and then be able to decide to give it up.
