Today was the Houston Half Marathon! I had a great time and it was quite challenging, albeit rewarding. The night before the marathon I was so incredibly excited that I literally could not sleep. I had so much anxiety that I ended up staying awake until 1:45AM. I woke up at 4:45 and tried to shake off the lack of sleep, but I wasn't very successful. Unfortunately, with the combination of rain and fatigue my time suffered. My time suffered but the experience was nonetheless amazing!!! I was a nervous wreck! I ended up crying on three separate occasions while running and I still can't quite figure out why! Luckily, I managed to get it together enough to start strong. I am so happy that I accomplished my goal of completing the half marathon and hope to run many more!
I want to give Tracy a special thank you for allowing me to spend so much time, every week, running and helping me achieve my goals. Even though I only started running outside in September, I feel like I've put so much effort into this moment. I honestly feel like I'm on top of the world (but with sore feet haha).
