I had high hopes of posting a report after the Philly Distance Run on September 20, but I was surprised by a visit from our Illinois/most recently lived in Hawaii/now live in NJ cousins at the finish line, which was AMAZING! Then we went to see Dave Matthews Band that night, so it was a zany day. I decided to run the whole first 4 miles without stopping. Bad move. My knee started hurting. But I finished in 2 hours, 14 minutes. Not bad! That's only 8 minutes slower than my PR for a half.
Since then, I've turned 30, been to Disney on a GREAT vacation and back, and the Phillies have won their second pennant in a row! I'm signed up for a 5-mile run in Long Branch with my sister-in-law on November 7, which should be really fun. And Disney just announced a half marathon at night followed by a private celebration in Epcot for the Food & Wine Festival on October 1 - 2, 2010. Um, I think I was born to do this race.
Michael and I are toying with the idea of doing another TNT event....together! We're running in the morning about twice a week. It's so nice to have him by my side. We're looking at a few events in the early summer, so stay tuned!

The photo above is one of my birthday presents from Michael. 30 photos of us through the years. We also celebrated our second wedding anniversary on October 6. I'm a lucky gal.
