i ran my first half marathon

On Sunday I completed my very first half marathon, and it went…

•I began training for this in late February, so this was a super exciting day. Before this, I was never a runner and the training was a huge challenge for me! I started by barely being able to run for one mine without walking, to completing a half marathon with only walking at water stations! I’m so proud to have competed this goal!

•I was super excited the day of the run, and my adrenaline was definitely pumping😅 I started off running WAY too fast and I didn’t feel it, until I did😂. So I def don’t want to make that mistake again if I ever run one of these again

•The sweat was UNREAL! It was dried up all over my skin and the pit stains were popping. No need to hide it, as it just is proof of the hard work!

•My legs right after and the last couple of the days were definitely feeling it! Laying on the ground when I was done was one of the best feelings.

•It was so much more fun than I could have ever expected. The vibes were so good and it was so much fun to have the community cheering on the runners the whole way!!

I am so proud of myself for completing this mental and physical challenge. If you would have told me a year ago that I would have ran a half marathon, I would have thought you were crazy! This is a bucket list accomplishment and I am so glad I did it. I couldn’t be prouder and makes me realize that I can do much more than I thought I was capable of!💛
