Check That One Off the List

I have a fairly big birthday coming up. I've made a mental list of things to do before I turn a certain age. I did one of them yesterday. I ran a half marathon. My friend Jackie, who has run marathons and half marathons in the past, trained with me and we did it! I was really surprised how well the run went, and really pleased with my time. I followed a training regimen I found here, and it really carried me through. It also helped that Jackie is a human metronome. She keeps pace like a pro and I'm so glad I got to do this run with her.

Way to go! I didn't accomplish that before my big year, and probably never will. Good to have goals.
