Mile 13 The finish line. Collapse.
I finished my first 1/2 marathon this weekend. I wasn’t going to. I got that anxiety in my chest the day before telling me I had no choice. I hadn’t trained in weeks. I knew I wasn’t ready. But I made it. 2 hours 23 minutes. I had nothing left. It was awful and I am so grateful I did it. And you better believe I am doing again, but I will do it prepared.
I'm glad you are over your negative emotions and realize that you DID do it and even though you were spent, you did it! I'm still a little pouty though about you beating me and I DID train. Great pic, I think it says it all.
