I participated in my 4th Indianapolis 500 Festival Mini Marathon today. I ran the first two years, walked last year because I was 6 months pregnant and did a run/walk this year because I just didn’t take the time to train. With absolutely NO training I still managed to pull off running 7.1 miles out of 13.1 with my friend Doubie in tow. It felt great, and has made me eager to get back into running. My official time was 2:55:30.
Austin, Hadley, Mom, Zeb, Holly and Gabe all came to watch us cross the finish line. Despite the thousands of runners, someone has always managed to pick me out of the crowd as I ran across the finish line. This was the first year they missed me. Oh well!
I got to hold Hadley after the race…instead of being proud of mommy for finishing something most people never even dream of starting, she just enjoyed chewing on my medal!
I can’t wait for Saturday, May 7th, 2011. Bring it on!
