your aura is purple.... PURPLE!!


yep, this is the color of my face after running 6.6 miles! i finished the second leg of the LR Marathon this morning in a little over an hour... since then i have been home crying because it hurts so bad! haha! no, not really, it was great, but i really can't walk. i love racing! and karl came out to support and take pictures so that made me happy!

next year's goal: TRAIN! GO OUT AND RUN MORE THAN ONE TIME prior to going for seven miles. I ran a little slower than i did last year, but last year i felt GREAT when i finished and like I could have continued. This year I just wanted to stop!!! my body was not and is not happy with me and i have been freezing since i stopped and can't seem to get warm or hydrated! yucko! but don't you worry i would do it again in a heartbeat!

  2. Great job! My mom walked the half-marathon for the second year in a row and loved it. She walked 12 minute miles the whole way. I think she said she trained for 5 months or something. Like Elizabeth, if I would have done what you did, I probably would have died too. I'm just not a runner, but maybe I'll train for the walk like my mom next year.
