Ok, so I did it! Its finally over and I am so glad to say the least. I cant believe that I am still up since I got about 3 hours of sleep, got up at 3 am to head downtown to catch the shuttles and get parked, ran 13.1 miles (at least it wasnt 26.2!), in the HOT HOT sun (a 25 year old Fort Campbell soldier died of cardiac arrest after crossing the finish line and over 4o others were hospitalized). It was a crazy day of mixed emotions and it was an incredible experience that I will never forget! More on that later... but before bed just wanted to show you that me and Jamie made the evening news!!! Our hula gear payed off and got us a little famous! I am not on there for very long so pay attention or you will miss me! LOL
Here is the link...an update on the race and pics to come later I promise. For now I must SLEEP!
