13.1 miles!!!!!

This is what I ran Sat. in the Country Music 1/2 Marathon. My very 1st "big" race! It was hard... but.. I did finish before my est. time....it was 2.15 and I finished in 2.06!! I was so suprised to see that time b/c I felt like I did 2.20. The last 2 miles were BRUTAL!! My legs felt so heavy and I just wanted to stop but when I saw the finish line , I don't know how but, I totally forgot about all my pain and sprinted the whole way in. That was the best feeling ever!! I love the rush you get from running fast like that.
I will have to post some pictures after I order them.
On to other news...as of today our house is on the market. Our realtor just came out to put the sign in our yard. It was so weird seeing it out there... it makes it more "real". Our new house is coming along, I am soo excited to see how it all turns out.

I did it!!

My first race in like 8 years!! I have not been in a race since high-
school. I can't believe I waited that long ..... it was so much fun and
felt so good....I even got 2nd place in my age group! I don't care
that maybe there was only one other person in that group....
I still won an award!!:) I am so hooked now....I am looking for
where I can run my next race.
I have been running with 2 other girlfriends and every since then
we have been all about running. The plan is to eventually run in
a marathon one day.....I am not promising anybody anything yet.
Here is a picture of me and my running buddies at the race...
So, I wanted to share with you another one of my favorite hobbies....scrapbooking!! Here are some recent lo's that I did....
