Ty and I just completed the Carlsbad Half-Marathon on Sunday with a time of 1:54. Somehow we finished with the same exact time as when we ran a half-marathon a few years back. It's hard not to compare the two experiences. Here were my two reactions post-race:
Half-marathon #1 in 2005 - "That wasn't bad at all. I could have kept running. I'd love to do a marathon someday.
Half-marathon #2 on Sunday - "I almost died at mile 11. I am NEVER doing a full marathon."
Training for this one was a bit more challenging with two kids in the mix. We got these medals (in picture) for the girls to play with for completing the race. I guess the girls deserve the medals for enduring six mile rides in the jogging stroller on some pretty cold days in December. They think the medals are cameras and run around saying, "Cheese" and "Smile."

Janine - I am so proud of you (and a little ashamed of myself) that you are running half-marathons. I MUST start training. You inspire me.
The photos on this blog are outstanding - thanks for letting me know about it.
