Running my 1st Mini!!!


I ran my first mini this month! It was a great experience, and I am going to sign up to do it again next year. I started my training off with running 1 mile and yes... ended running 13.1!  I started to tear up at mile 10 because I knew I would finish strong. I ran with my sister Emily. She kept me laughing the whole time. We started way in the back, and didn't get to the start line for 40 minutes after the start of the race. We dodged walkers the whole time. SO FUN!

Why did he keep kissing my sweaty head? Yuck!
This is my friend Ali, who I trained with. She is the one I saw at 7AM on Saturday mornings. Thanks Ali for being a great training partner!
Emily and I, feeling very proud of ourselves. Thanks Emily for running with me. I couldn't of asked for a better experience!
